  • The date of Carbo's praetorship is uncertain, and is placed here on the conjecture, based on the order in Cicero's text, that he was the youngest of the three brothers, the eldest of whom was Consul in 120, and the second in 113. Klein (Verwaltb. 1.1.52), Wehrmann (15), and Münzer (Gent. Val. 40 and note{535} 10, on P. Flaccus) list him at this date, but in RE Münzer is content to assign him to the Gracchan period. (Broughton MRR I)
  • Condemned for extortion upon his return (Cic. Fam. 6.21.3). (Broughton MRR I)
