Lex Julia
Lex Julia DE PROVINCIIS, passed by Julius Caesar: it limited the governorship of a praetorian province to one year, that of a consular one to two. Orelli also ascribes to this lex certain regulations of Caesar as to provincial expenses, which Ernesti considers to have been part of the Lex Julia repetundarum (Cic. Phil. 1.8; D. C. 43.25; Ferrat. Epist. 3.14).
