The present article deals with three main topics of Ancient Roman law. The first one describes the formation of Roman law of succession as an independent branch of law: decline of family system, genesis of individual property and respect of a will after death (testament). The second part analyses a situation when person alieni iuris is given an active testamentary capacity. The last part is focused on penal consequences of a distraint of debtor´s property. This result appears in Roman law mainly in case of crimen laesae maiestatis. A complete regulation can be found in Digest of Iustinian – 48th book, 20th title – De bonis damnatorum.
