A New Law Dictionary and Glossary

Lat. [from gerere, to do.] Done; a thing done. A distinction was sometimes made in the civil law, between this word and factum. Gaius, however, in the Digests pronounces this to be subtle, (subtilis) and holds that practically there was no difference between them.

Dig. 50. 16. 58.
