Sulla
1 increased the number of officers of state elected in any given yea
2 gave the newly elected quaestors gain automatic membership in the Senate.
These two reforms allowed Sulla to increase the size of the Senate (from 300 to 600 senators) and removed the need for the censor to draw up a list of senators
3 transferred the control of the courts from members of the equestrian order to the senators and increased the number of courts, thus strengthening the power of the senators.
4 Ended the role of the Assembly of the Soldiers as a court of appeal for capital punishment cases and of the Assembly of the Tribes as a court of appeal for other cases and transferred these to jury courts
5 codified and finalised the cursus honorum, the career ladder for public office, and set the minimum age to be eligible for each office
6 reaffirmed the requirement of ten years to elapse before being re-elected to any office.
7 established that the consuls and the praetors were to serve as provincial governors for the year after they left office.
Sulla also took measured to weaken the plebeian tribunes. They were deprived of the power to propose legislation to the Plebeian Council and the power to veto the acts of the senate. Ex-tribunes were prohibited from holding any other office. The tribunes' power to protect individuals remained intact. Not long after Sulla's death, these measures were repealed

∙ 11y agoSulla weakened the plebeian tribunes (the representatives of the poor plebeians) and strengthened the senate though the following constitutional reforms which:
• increased the number of elected officers of state
• gave the quaestors (treasurers and junior officers of state) automatic membership in the senate on expiry of their office
• the two measures above enabled him to double the size of the senate from 300 to 600 (previously only former higher officers of state, consuls, praetors and censors had automatic membership in the senate). Sulla also built a new and larger senate house, the Curia Cornelia.
• ended one of the roles of the censors, the drawing up of a list of men eligible to membership of the senate. This was no longer necessary because there were now enough former officer of state to fill the seats of the senate.
• decreed that consuls and praetors were to serve as governors of the provinces for a year when they left office.
• transferred the hearing of appeal cases from the popular assemblies (the assembly of the soldiers and the assembly of the tribes) to a new jury court (the quaestiones perpetuae). These juries were controlled by the patricians, which strengthened the power of the patricians.
• institutionalised the cursus honorum, the career path for public office, and set minimum ages for access to each of the offices of state.
• Reaffirmed the law that forbade re-election of the officers of state for ten years
Sulla also weakened the power of the plebeian tribunes, he:
• made reforms of the plebeian council that deprived the plebeian tribunes of the power to propose legislation to this council. Previously the plebeian tribunes presented bills to this council, and if approved, they became laws. This greatly weakened the plebeian tribunes.
Some of Sulla's reforms were repealed after his death.

∙ 13y agoSulla changed the government back to the Patrician or aristocratic rule. (or at least he tried to) He greatly reduced the power of the equestrians, who were most of the judges at the time and weeded out any senators with populist leanings. His use of the proscription helped to rid Rome of many of the Marist party, who he considered subversive.

∙ 8y agoIn his constitutional reforms, Sulla:
• increased the number of elected officers of state
• gave the quaestors (treasurers and junior officers of state) automatic membership in the senate on expiry of their office
• the two measures above enabled him to double the size of the senate from 300 to 600 (previously only former higher officers of state, consuls. praetors and censors had automatic membership in the senate). Sulla also built a new senate house, the Curia Cornelia, to accommodate this enlarged senate.
• ended one of the roles of the censors, the drawing up of a list of men eligible to membership of the senate because as all officers of state automatically became senators, this was no longer needed.
• decreed that consuls and praetors were to serve as governors of the provinces for a year when they left office.
