Lit.: QVANDOQVE HICE HOMINES... NOXAM NOCVERVNT, an old fetial formula in Liv. 9, 10 fin.; so, too, perhaps, SI SERVVS FVRTVM FAXIT NOXAMVE NOCVIT, Fragm. XII. Tab. in Dig. 9, 4, 2, § 1 (al. NOXIAMVE):

Col. 1 prooem.:

quod ajunt aediles: noxā solutus non sit (servus) sic intellegendum est, ut non hoc debeat pronuntiari, nullam eum noxam commisisse, sed illud, noxā solutum esse, hoc est noxali judicio subjectum non esse: ergo si noxam commisit nec permanet, noxā solutus videtur,

Dig. 21, 1, 17, § 17: non noxae eximitur Q. Fabius, qui contra edictum imperatoris pugnavit;
