Term: le roy s'avisera
Definition: Le roy s'avisera means "the king will advise upon it" in Law French. It is a way for the king to refuse royal assent to a public bill in Parliament, although this has not been done since 1713. It is similar to the phrase "curia advisari vult" used in judicial settings. If a queen were in power, the phrase would be "la reine s'avisera."
Example: The bill was presented to the king for royal assent, but he responded with "le roy s'avisera," indicating that he needed more time to consider it before making a decision.
