Extract from the minutes of the epistrategos Rutillius Achilleus recording a hearing on 25 May 194. Through his advocate Julianus, Gaius Julius Ptolemaios, a citizen of Antinoopolis, complained against Chairemon son of Maron of Karanis, who had not appeared, and asked that he be sent to Antinoopolis for trial; the epistrategos ordered the strategos to send him there.

In English machine translation

From the minutes of Rutillius Achilleus, epistrategos. Year 2 of Lucius Septimius Severus Pertinax, Pachon 30. Gaius Julius Ptolemaios having come forward, Julianus, advocate, said: "This man is an Antinoite. Having suffered violence, insult and extortion (?), he petitioned you against Chairemon son of Maron. You gave an order through the attendant Ptolemaios; since, then, he is not present, we ask, in accordance with the [...] rights, which you also upheld, that he be sent to Antinoopolis to stand trial." Achilleus said: "Where is the opponent from?" He answered: "From the village of Karanis in this nome." Achilleus said: "Let the strategos [order] your opponent to be sent [to Antinoopolis]."

Citizens of Antinoopolis had the privilege of being sued and suing in their own city, which underlies the request. One description suggests the copy was made at the nome capital rather than Karanis; the word rendered 'extortion' (ergolabia) is of uncertain meaning here.
