		Promagistrates were usually either proquaestors (acting in place of quaestors), propraetors, acting in place of praetors, or proconsuls acting in place of consuls.
		It became fairly common for provincial governors to seek continual election to office to avoid trial for extortion and bribery, several famous examples being Gaius Verres and.
		The near limitless power of a high-ranking promagistrate has led to the term "proconsul" being used to designate any high-ranking and authoritative official appointed from above (or from without) to govern a territory without regard for local political institutions (´´i.e.´´, one who is not elected and whose authority supersedes that of local officials).

		[Verres was Roman governor of Sicily from 73 to 70 B.C. He plundered the province and committed many acts of extreme cruelty.
		At the expiration of his term in 70, he was prosecuted before the senatorial Extortion Court at Rome by Cicero, who represented the Sicilians.
		Cicero's prosecution of Verres was conducted so brilliantly that Verres withdrew into voluntary exile before the trial could be completed.
