    • 5 Vancura (RE 12.1155) and Rotondi (342) would attribute to this Plautius the obscure Lex Plotia Agraria (Cic. Att. 1.18.6), but Niccolini favors a date between 69 and 60 (FTP 436; see 70, Tribunes of the Plebs). (Broughton MRR II)
    • Along with his colleague Papirius Carbo, he carried a law to grant citizenship to all citizens of allied states who were resident in Italy at the time, and made a declaration before a Praetor within sixty days (Cic. Arch. 7, and Schol. Bob. 175 Stangl; Vell. 2.17.1), probably superseding other legislation regarding new citizens (see 90, Consuls, on the Lex Iulia; and above, on Calpurnius). He also carried a law that fifteen persons from each tribe, chosen from the senatorial and other orders, should serve as jurymen (Cic. Corn., and Ascon. 79C; cf. Ps.Sall. In Cic. 2.3).
