When Macedonian envoys arrived to complain about praetor Decimus Junius Silanus, who had accepted bribes and had looted the province, the Senate wanted to investigate the complaints, but Titus Manlius Torquatus (the [adoptive] father of Silanus) successfully asked that he would hear the case; at home, he condemned and sent away his son.

Cicero supported Decimus Junius Brutus Albinus as governor of Cisalpine Gaul (Gallia Cisalpina) and urged the Senate to name Antony an enemy of the state.
Antony was later declared an enemy of the state when he refused to lift the siege of Mutina, which was in the hands of Decimus Brutus.
Cicero described his position in a letter to Cassius, one of Caesar's assassins, that same September: “I am pleased that you like my motion in the Senate and the speech accompanying it… Antony is a madman, corrupt and much worse than Caesar — whom you declared the worst of evil men when you killed him.

 LUCIUS SERGIUS CATILINA
As president of the court Caesar was not responsible for the verdict of the jury, but it does show that there existed influential men concerned to preserve Catiline from political extinction.
The highest office in the State, the summit of his political ambitions, was not to be his by constitutional means, and it was the realization of this fact that turned Catiline into an active revolutionary preparing a coup d' etat in Rome and an insurrection in Italy.
The Senate accepted his motion, but at the meeting on the next day took the view that there were no grounds for emergency measures, and Catiline stalked out of the House in triumph.

To lend greater weight to his words, he also summoned Gabinius, and in his presence disclosed the conspiracy, and named his accomplices, including among them, in order to inspire the ambassadors with greater courage, many persons of every rank who were perfectly innocent.

 Pontifex and President
But in Rome the long-time mistress of Caesar, Servilia, half sister of Cato minor, one of Caesar's most important opponents, waited all the time, true and faithful for her entire lifetime, deeply in love with the genius, which gave birth to Caesar's daughter, Tertia which by the way was her third daughter.
It has to be mentioned that Servilia was married with Decimus Junius Silanus which unfortunately was impotent and different from Clinton could not have erection and thus could not satisfy her which again was a good cause for her relations with Caesar.
But Caesar did not want to marry Servilia - just to have fun with her at times like Clinton with Lewinski and Kennedy with Monroe.
