['Allocation of a lawsuit'] and 'to be allocated a lawsuit': [this is what] they say for announcing a judgment of private matters;[1] but inviting [sc. to trial] in response [is] antilacheîn,[2] and distributing money [is] dialacheîn.[3]

The twin headword phrases here are lacking (Adler reports) in ms A, as if to suggest that this material is a continuation of
lambda 463. But
Photius too has this as a discrete entry: lambda278 Theodoridis.
The entry as a whole begins in the area of classical Athenian law, before becoming more general (see n.3 below).
[1] The first headword phrase is glossed in LSJ s.v.
lh=cis II as "written complaint lodged with the Archon, as the first step in private actions". The phrase appears here in the accusative, but there is no classical instance of that. (The phrase occurs in the accusative
plural in
Aeschines 1.63).
[2] LSJ s.v.
a)ntilagxa/nw: "move for a rehearing of a suit, when the case had gone by default; enter an exceptive plea; bringing a counteraction". This is the same legal sense of
lagxa/nw as above, with
a)nti/ corresponding to "counter-".
[3] LSJ s.v.
dialagxa/nw: "divide or part by lot; obtain by lot". This refers to the more generic sense of
lagxa/nw, "be alloted".
