After the defeat of Gnaeus Papirius Carbo and Gaius Norbanus in 81 BC, he obtained the pardon of Sulla by treacherously putting to death many of the principal officers of Norbanus, whom he had invited to a banquet. Ariminium in consequence revolted to Sulla, whence the Pseudo-Asconius speaks of Albino­vanus betraying it. ["in Cic. Verr." p. 168, ed. Orelli] [Appian, "B. C." i. 60, 62, 91] [Florus, iii. 21. § 7]
