Military Tribunals and their Jurisdiction

Abstract
The early Romans had their præfecti prætorio, or military judges, afterwards replaced by magistri militum, who exercised a jurisdiction somewhat corresponding to modern courts-martial and military commissions. It is true that there has been much dispute in regard to the exact limits of this jurisdiction, as conferred by the laws which have been handed down to us, yet its general outlines have been pretty well agreed upon.
