He was probably one of the aedilicii among the legati of L. Piso in Macedonia in 57-55 (Cic. Pis. 88, quaestor aediliciis reiectis praepositus; see MRR 2.204, 212), and so was an aedile by or before 58. Sumner has shown that there is no need to assume that he had been praetor before becoming proconsul in Bithynia-Pontus by Caesar's appointment in 45, and that in 46 he was more probably a legatus under Caesar in Africa than a military tribune (Phoenix 25, 1971, 269; cf. MRR 2.295, and 299, correcting the praenomen to Q.). He might have been a praetor as early as 54, and there is a possibility that he was the suffect consul of 36 (MRR 2.399). See also Syme, CPh 50, 1955, 135, and RR 199, note 3. (Broughton MRR III)

Proconsul in Bithynia and Pontus, whence he led three legions to Syria in 44 (App. BC 3.77; 4.58; and on his title, Cic. Phil. 11.30; Fam. 12.11.1). (Broughton MRR II)

Proconsul of Bithynia and Pontus (see 45, Promagistrates). He brought three legions to Syria to aid L. Staius Murcus against Caecilius Bassus, and by or before 43 had received acclamation as Imperator (Cic.

Proconsul (see 44, Promagistrates) in command of three legions in Syria which he yielded to the command of Cassius (Cic. Phil. 11.30, pro consule; Fam. 12.11.1, imperatore, and 12.3; Ad Brat. 2.3.3; Vell. 2.69.2, imperator; App. BC 3.78; 4.59; Dio 47.27-28), and retired from service (Dio 47.28.4). (Broughton MRR II)
