L. (Sempronius) Asellio (): 96 BCE (Praetor)
Broughton: Since the governors of Spain in 94 and 93, during and after the consulship of Caelius, are known, his term must precede that of Didius, who was assigned to Spain while Consul in 98. The emblem of the boar of Clunia on the coins which commemorate him suggest that his province was Nearer Spain. This is therefore the latest possible date for his praetorship, but he may have been a Praetor in 100 and a Promagistrate in 99. (MRR2)

Aediles
Broughton: Caius Claudius, whose aedileship we know to have been a most splendid affair, used this statue of Cupid, as long as he kept the forum decorated in honour of the immortal gods and the Roman people (Cicero Verrine Orations 2.4.6)

Quaestors
Broughton: The coins in question contain the forms Ap. Cl., T. Mal., and Q. Urb. The variations in the order of the first two indicate that the third is rightly interpreted by Mommsen and Grueber to mean Q(uaestores) Urb(ani), not Q. Turb(inius). Claudius should most probably be identified with the Praetor of 89 (who, though Grueber disagrees, may also be the legionary commander of the name in 87 and the Interrex of 78; see these years), and therefore Mommsen's tentative suggestion of 99, ten years earlier, for his quaestorship a reasonably approximate date. Mallius is not otherwise known. Cichorius, quoting ILS 8888, is inclined to read Mal(oleius) and to identify this Quaestor with one of the officers of Pompeius Strabo (RS 146), but the occurrence of the name Mallius in Roman public office in 143 and 105 favors its retention here.

Broughton: The bill of these two Tribunes to recall Metellus Numidicus from exile was opposed by Marius (still Consul, December, 100), and vetoed by Furius (a). In our sources only the name Pompeius isgiven, but identification with the Consul of 88 is very probable, since the interval between tribunate and consulship and the political sympathies of the Tribune both agree with it.

Broughton: The bill of these two Tribunes to recall Metellus Numidicus from exile was opposed by Marius (still Consul, December, 100), and vetoed by Furius (a). The father of Cato of Utica died before 91 (b). He had held the tribunate and was a candidate for the praetorship at the time of his death (c). This tribunate is attributed in Drumann-Groebe (5.214) to L. Porcius Cato, Cos. 89, whose tenure of the office is not independently attested, but by Niccolini (FTP 205) to Cato's father. On the order of the husbands of Livia, Cato's mother, see Münzer, APF 295-297.
MT: From DPPR, Tr. Pl. 99. Miltner in RE follows Drumann Groebe in attributing this tribunate to L. Porcius Cato (7). Cos. 89. See MRR 2.3, note 6.

Broughton: A sympathizer of Saturninus and author of an agrarian bill which was impeded by bad omens and vetoed by other Tribunes (a), and perhaps also author of a law regulating the assignment of quaestorian provinces (b). Rotondi (333) mentions him also as a possible author of a Lex de Tutela (but see Niccolini, FTP 443f.).
