Ides of March
Senators could be expelled from the senate by the censors. The duties of these executive officers of state included keeping the roll of the senators, enrolling new senators and overseeing and preserving public morals (regimen morum) and the traditional Roman character, ethics, and behaviour. The punishment for crimes of morality was issued though a nota inurebant (burned in mark, branding, black mark) or animadversio censoria (censorial reproach) which stigmatised the person. This led to ignominia (disgrace) a punishment of civil degradation. Ignominia varied according to the social rank of the offender. For senators it was ejectio e senatu, ejection from the Senate. Ignominia was a temporary punishment.

The Roman Senate.
The ancient Roman republic had two branches-- the Senate and the Roman people. The magistrates and officials (consuls, praetors, tribune, etc.) were incorporated into the senate, while the votes of the people elected them to their various offices. The ancient Roman republic was not the same as our present day republics even through they are named the same.
A fateful day.....
