As a result of (my opponent's) frequently putting forward excuses and avoiding a trial, (NN) . . . after many . . . courts . . . doing dreadful things . . . is proof of . . . for/to a scoundrel . . . and to overlook the . . . from the office of the court . . . committed. And accordingly she, being subject to a great many injustices, and having been snatched (or: torn) by . . . my sister, I petitioned the former epistrategos Valens through an abundance of petitions, asking to be heard. Moreover Valens, finding that my request belonged to the office of the epistrategos, accepted it, rendering judgment through all his subscriptions. And when my opponent was not found, but rather escaping . . . to put off the matter . . . . Since therefore in the intervening time . . . and him . . . subject to the violence of my opponent . . . according to necessity . . . capital punishment . . . depending . . . in need . . . jurisdiction . . . helpless (nom.) . . . .
