Adler number: epsilon,2298
Translated headword: (things) disputed at law

[Meaning ones] to which someone would lay a legal claim, on the basis that they belong to him by right of succession[1] -- provided the deceased had no sons or grandsons: these things are called disputed at law.
Greek Original:
*)epi/dika: oi(=s a)/n tis e)pedika/zeto, w(s prosh/kousin au)tw=| kata\ ge/nous a)gxistei/an, ei) mh\ ei)=en ui(ei=s h)\ ui(wnoi\ tw=| teteleuthko/ti, mh/te mh\n diaqh=kai, tau=ta e)pi/dika kalei=tai.
Notes:
The neuter plural headword is evidently quoted from somewhere, probably Attic oratory. In in event the entry resembles what Lexica Segueriana 184.1-2 says s.v. a)nepi/dika ('they call epidika the things that are legally disputed amongst relatives'); cf. alpha 2292.
cf. generally epsilon 2299.
[1] For this concept -- literally nearness (of kin) -- see alpha 407, alpha 408, alpha 409.
