A quick definition of arbor civilis:

Arbor Civilis: A family tree that shows the relationships between family members. It is also called arbor consanguinitatis.

Arbor Finalis: A tree that is used to mark a boundary line.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Arbor civilis (ahr-bər siv-ə-lis) is a Latin term that means "civil tree." It refers to a genealogical tree, which is a chart that shows the relationships between family members over several generations.

Example: An example of an arbor civilis is a family tree that shows the names and relationships of all the members of a family, including parents, grandparents, great-grandparents, and so on.

Explanation: An arbor civilis is a useful tool for tracing a family's history and understanding the connections between different family members. By looking at an arbor civilis, you can see how different branches of a family are related to each other and how they have evolved over time.

Definition: Arbor finalis (ahr-bər fi-nay-lis) is a Latin term that means "boundary tree." It refers to a tree that is used to mark a boundary line between two properties or pieces of land.

Example: An example of an arbor finalis is a large oak tree that stands at the edge of a field, marking the boundary between two farms.

Explanation: In the past, arbor finalis trees were often used to mark the boundaries of different properties, as they were a visible and long-lasting way to define where one piece of land ended and another began. Today, arbor finalis trees are less commonly used, but they still serve as a reminder of the importance of respecting property lines and boundaries.

@mastermonkey45: Looking at some of the recent decisions in relation to when they went complete, I'd say it's a good sign. It seems many declines were sent within about 5-6 weeks of completion. Given those were applications that were SENT in January, I'd say that means you're still solidly in the running. :)
