A quick definition of go hence without day:

GO HENCE WITHOUT DAY: This term means that a defendant in a lawsuit has finished all legal proceedings without any further court dates. It is a way for the defendant to get the case dismissed and finally resolved. The phrase comes from the Law French phrase "aller sans jour" and defendants use it to request that the case against them be dismissed without going to court. It is sometimes shortened to "go without day" or "without day." Another similar term is "sine die," which means "without a day being set."

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: When a defendant in a lawsuit is finished with legal proceedings without any further settings on the court's calendar. This means that the case against them has been dismissed and they do not have to appear in court again.

Explanation: In this example, John was able to successfully defend himself in court and the case against him was dismissed. This means that he does not have to appear in court again and the legal proceedings are finished. He was able to go hence without day.
