Definition: Bannitus (ban-uh-tuhs) is a term from Law Latin that refers to a person who is under a ban or an outlaw. It is similar to the term "ban" which is a public proclamation or summons. Bans were used to call people to arms or to declare someone an outlaw. Bannitus can also refer to an authoritative ecclesiastical prohibition or excommunication.

In the second example, it refers to a person who has been excommunicated by the church. In the third example, it refers to the announcement of a couple's intention to marry in a church.
