Abstract

cvThis research seeks to study the litigation of the Libyan city of Sabratha and the development of its judiciary during the Roman era. The scope of interest is limited to this historical period, which witnessed special interest confirmed by Roman sources in terms of the organization of the judicial institution.
        The research was divided into five axes. The first aims to present and analyze the judiciary during the Phoenician era. The second axis dealt with the judiciary in the Roman era, with special importance being given to the law of pleadings, which had the credit for the development of the judiciary in general and the law of pleadings in particular. The third axis is what the research was based on. What enabled the city to achieve development in its judicial structure through the Sabratha plea, and in order for us to touch that development, the text of the plea or defense must be cited, and this is what the fourth axis will address.
   The conclusion contains a set of ideas and results that were reached during the research. Which is intended to present new topics that can be used to study cultural history, especially judicial history, and away from political history.
