A quick definition of jus Latii:

Term: jus Latii

Definition: Jus Latii is a term used in Roman law to describe the rights granted to a citizen of a Roman colony. This status was in between being a foreigner and a full citizen of Rome. It was given to people who lived in colonies established by Rome and allowed them to have certain rights and protections.

A more thorough explanation:

jus Latii

jus Latii is a term used in Roman law to describe the rights given to a citizen of a Roman colony. These rights were granted to individuals who were not full citizens of Rome, but were not foreigners either. This meant that they had some of the rights of a Roman citizen, but not all of them.

An example of someone who would have been granted jus Latii would be a person living in a Roman colony. They would have had some of the rights of a Roman citizen, such as the right to own property and the right to a fair trial, but they would not have been able to vote or hold public office.

Another example would be if a person from a Roman colony moved to Rome. They would not automatically become a full citizen of Rome, but they would still have some of the rights of a Roman citizen because of their jus Latii status.

These examples illustrate how jus Latii was a way for Rome to extend some of its rights and privileges to people living in its colonies, while still maintaining a distinction between full citizens and non-citizens.

@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. :)
