“LawWhen there has been a
prior judgement audit or adjudication about any matter in a court of law,
whether in a public or a private suit, or where the State has been vendor,
none of the magistrates may bring the matter into court or put any question
to the vote, nor shall they permit any accusation forbidden by law.”
Demosthenes. Demosthenes with an English translation by A. T. Murray, Ph.D., LL.D. Cambridge, MA, Harvard University Press; London, William Heinemann Ltd. 1939.
