In Roman law. A species of judges originally established, it is supposed, to decide controversies 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 the 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 various. Colman, De Romano judicio recuperatorio. Cicero's oration (Pro Coecin. 1, 3) was addressed to recuperators. RECURRENDUM EST AD EXTRAORDInarium quando non valet ordinarium. We must have recourse to what is extraordinary when what is ordinary fails.
