A quick definition of justitium:

Term: JUSTITIUM

Definition: Justitium is a Latin term used in civil law to describe a break or pause in the administration of justice in courts, usually during vacation time. It means that the courts are not operating during a specific period, and cases cannot be heard or resolved until the break is over.

Related term: Justo tempore, which means "in due time."

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Justitium is a Latin term used in civil law to refer to the suspension or interruption of the administration of justice in courts, usually during vacation time.

Example: During the summer months, many courts in the United States have a period of justitium, which means that they are closed and not hearing any cases. This allows judges and court staff to take a break and recharge before returning to work.

Explanation: The example illustrates how justitium is used to refer to a period of time when courts are not operating. This break is necessary to ensure that judges and court staff can take time off to rest and recharge, which can help them to be more effective when they return to work.

Additional Example: In ancient Rome, justitium was declared after the death of an emperor to allow time for mourning and the selection of a new ruler.

Explanation: This example shows how justitium was used in ancient Rome to refer to a period of time when the administration of justice was suspended due to a significant event, such as the death of an emperor. During this time, the focus was on mourning and selecting a new ruler, rather than on legal matters.
