  3. 52 BCE
    Praetor

    Broughton: Broughton: M. Nonius Sufenas was governor of an eastern province in Feb. 50 (a) and very probably in 51. As he held the quaestorship in 62 and the tribunate of the Plebs in 56, Pompey's law establishing an interval of five years between city magistracy and provincial command can hardly have been applied to him. In fact, it may not have been applied to the magistrates of 52 at all. Accordingly I suggest 52 as the year of his praetorship and 51 and 50 for his promagistracy. See 51, Promagistrates
