Summary:

Legal decision by Giovanni Stafileo, here written as Johannes Staphileus, in litigation between Enea di Giacomo di Nanni Todeschini Piccolomini, a Roman baron and lord of Montemarciano, and his brother Silvio, both nephews of Pope Pius III. Silvio had obtained a decision from the Balia of Siena that deprived his brother of the administration of the paternal estate which Enea allegedly had performed poorly. Stafileo, appointed as a judge to the case by Pope Leo X, reversed the decision of the Balia.
