Multiple Forced Heirs and the Action for Undutiful Will in Roman Law : Classical and Byzantine Texts

Examination of passages from the Digest and the Basilicorum scholia. The author maintains that, contrary to what is held true by current mainstream doctrine on the subject of the querela inofficiosi testamenti, all classical Roman jurists agreed on one point: if there were multiple forced heirs, the others benefited from an inheritance increase only if one of these repudiated the querela, otherwise there could be no increase.
