RECUPERATORES, Roman civil law. A species of judges originally established, it is supposed, to decide controversies¹⁵ between Roman citizens and strangers, concerning the right to the possession of property requiring speedy remedy; but gradually extended to questions which might be brought before ordinary judges. After this enlargement of their powers, the difference between them and judges, it is supposed, was simply this: If the praetor named three judges he called them recuperatores; if one, he called him judex. But opinions on this subject are very various. (Colman De Romano judicio recuperatorio,) Cicero's oration¹⁶ pro⁶ Coecin, 1, 3, was addressed to Recuperators.
