A quick definition of ADS:

Term: ADS

Definition: ADS stands for AD SECTAM.

ADS is a short form of a Latin phrase that means "according to the rules". It is often used in legal documents and official communications to indicate that something has been done in accordance with the prescribed rules and regulations.

For example, if a company follows all the rules and regulations while conducting its business, it can say that it has done everything "ADS".

A more thorough explanation:

Term: ADS

Definition:ads.abbr.AD SECTAM.

Explanation: ADS is an abbreviation for the Latin phrase "AD SECTAM," which means "at the suit of." It is often used in legal documents to indicate that a legal action is being taken at the request of someone else.

Example: The lawsuit was filed ADS John Smith, meaning that John Smith requested the legal action be taken.

Example: The court granted the injunction ADS the plaintiff's attorney, indicating that the attorney requested the injunction on behalf of their client.

Illustration: These examples show how ADS is used to indicate that a legal action is being taken at the request of someone else. In both cases, the legal action is being taken on behalf of another person or entity, and ADS is used to make that clear.
