:''For other people with the same name, see Lucius Aemilius Paullus''
'Lucius Aemilius Lepidus Paullus' (d. 14), an aristocratic 1st century Roman, was the husband of Julia the Younger, emperor Augustus' granddaughter. His father was Lucius Aemilius Paullus (who served as a censor, and was himself the younger son of Lucius Aemilius Lepidus Paullus, consul of 50 BC) and his mother was Cornelia Scipio (a descendant of Pompey and Roman Dictator Lucius Cornelius Sulla).
Paullus became consul for the year 1. His wife Julia, in 8, was exiled for having an affair with a senator. Paullus was executed as a conspirator in a revolt in 14.
His children were Aemilia Lepida (4/3 BC-53) and Marcus Aemilius Lepidus (6-39) who married emperor Caligula's sister Julia Drusilla.
The son was later adopted by his paternal uncle Marcus Aemilius Lepidus (ca. 30 BC-33) who became consul in 6. The brother was a respected senator and governor during the reigns of Augustus and Tiberius, and was praised by the historian Tacitus. It was this brother's daughter, another Aemilia Lepida, who married Drusus Caesar, a son of Germanicus and Agrippina the Elder. This niece committed suicide after being accused of adultery.
