A quick definition of in tempus indebitum:

Term: IN TEMPUS INDEBITUM

Definition: In legal Latin, in tempus indebitum means "at an undue time."

This phrase is used to describe a situation where something is done or requested at a time that is not appropriate or allowed by law. For example, if a creditor demands payment from a debtor before the agreed-upon due date, it would be considered in tempus indebitum.

A more thorough explanation:

IN TEMPUS INDEBITUM

in tempus indebitum (in tem-pəs in-deb-i-təm). [Law Latin] Hist. At an undue time.

In tempus indebitum is a legal term that means "at an undue time." This term is used in historical legal documents to describe actions that were taken at a time that was not appropriate or allowed by law.

An example of in tempus indebitum would be if a creditor tried to collect a debt from a debtor after the statute of limitations had expired. The statute of limitations is a legal time limit for how long a creditor has to collect a debt. If the creditor tries to collect the debt after this time limit has passed, they are doing so at an undue time and are in violation of the law.

Another example of in tempus indebitum would be if a landlord tried to evict a tenant without giving them proper notice. The law requires landlords to give tenants a certain amount of notice before they can be evicted. If the landlord tries to evict the tenant without giving them this notice, they are doing so at an undue time and are in violation of the law.

These examples illustrate how in tempus indebitum is used to describe actions that are taken at a time that is not appropriate or allowed by law.

@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.
