2. SP. MAELIUS, tribune of the plebs B. C. 436, brought in a bill for confiscating the property of Ahala, but it failed. (Liv. 4.21.) Livy makes no other mention of the punishment of Ahala; but it is stated on other authorities, as is mentioned above, that Ahala was brought to trial, and only escaped condemnation by a voluntary exile. (V. Max. 5.3.2; comp. Cic. de Rep. i. 3, pro Dom. 32.)
