A quick definition of consideratum est per curiam:

Consideratum est per curiam: This is a Latin phrase that means "it is considered by the court." It was used in common-law courts as formal language before the judgment was given. Sometimes it is shortened to "consideratum est." A judgment is the decision or sentence of the law given by a court of justice to redress an injury. The language of the judgment is not "it is decreed" or "resolved" by the court, but "it is considered by the court" that the plaintiff should recover their debt.

A more thorough explanation:

Consideratum est per curiam (pronounced kuhn-sid-uh-ray-tuhm est per kyoor-ee-uhm) is a Latin term used in legal history. It means "it is considered by the court." This was the formal language used before a judgment was made in a common-law court.

Sometimes, the term is shortened to consideratum est. Another similar term is ideo consideratum est.

For example, a judge might say, "Consideratum est per curiam that the defendant is guilty of the crime."

The term consideratum est per curiam was used in common-law courts to indicate that the court had considered all the evidence and arguments presented before making a judgment. It was a formal way of saying that the court had reached a decision.

The use of Latin in legal language has declined over time, but some Latin terms are still used in legal documents and court proceedings today.

For example, a judge might say, "Consideratum est per curiam that the plaintiff is entitled to damages in the amount of $10,000."

This means that the court has considered all the evidence and arguments presented by the plaintiff and has decided that they are entitled to receive $10,000 in damages.

@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. :)

Give it 4 more weeks at least. Everyone in this chat needs to wait longer.

It is frustrating when people are admitted who applied after you. But that’s just part of the game I guess
