Dies ad quem
Not very much need be said about time clauses for, by and large, they followed the same rules as conditions. Thus, they also subdivided into two major categories: "[c]irca diem duplex inspectio est: nam vel ex die incipit obligatio aut confertur in diem.1,172 The former of the two, known generally as dies a quo, corresponded to the suspensive
condition, the latter (dies ad quern) found its counterpart in the resolutive condition.
The range of application of a dies ad quern was subject to the same limitations as that of a resolutive condition. Only bonae fidei contracts could be entered into for a certain time;[3797] with regard to stipulations, the dissolutive effect of the clause could at least be taken into account by way of an exceptio doli or pacti.[3798] But absolute legal rights or positions could not be subjected to a time limit.[3799]3.
