Latinism. Lex de pecuniis repetundis: law on the riches that must be claimed. Roman laws ( lex calpurnia, lex iulia, lex cornelia, lex servilia... ) from the time of the Republic against corruption, proposed by different rulers and approved by the Senate. Its implementation left much to be desired as it is now. If someone was considered guilty because he had little power and influence ( now we say that it would be a robagallinas ) it should return multiplied by three stolen or be banished forever.
