Biography/Description

Early ordo that does not name opposing viewpoints. Possibly authored by Hugo but could stem from southern France. One of the earliest works not to follow the order of the Corpus iuris ciuilis but rather to present a systematic and largely complete presentation of procedure. A final section, ‘De appellationibus’, could have been written and added later. It was not included in the early modern printing but is attached to the work in the Grenoble manuscript. The section is also transmitted separately and was influential at the papal curia.
