A quick definition of perficere susceptum munus:

Term: PERFICERE SUSCEPTUM MUNUS

Definition: In Scots law, this means to complete the duties of an office that one has taken on. It means that once someone has agreed to take on a job or position, they cannot just quit without a good reason. Another term, rebus integris, means that if nothing has been done towards fulfilling a contract, it can be cancelled.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Perficere susceptum munus is a Latin term used in Scots law, which means to perform the duties of an office undertaken. It refers to the obligation of a person who has assumed an office to fulfill the responsibilities of that office.

Example: If a person is appointed as a judge, they have a duty to hear cases and make judgments. They cannot resign from the office capriciously or without a valid reason. They must perform the duties of the office they have undertaken.

Rebus Integris: Rebus integris is another Latin term used in Scots law, which means matters being complete, and no performance having taken place. It refers to a situation where nothing has been done towards the performance of a contract or agreement.

Example: If two parties enter into a contract, but no performance has taken place, the contract can be rescinded. For instance, if a person agrees to sell their car to another person, but the buyer has not paid the agreed amount, and the seller has not handed over the car, the contract can be rescinded because rebus integris applies.

The examples illustrate that perficere susceptum munus and rebus integris are legal concepts that deal with the performance of duties and obligations. They emphasize the importance of fulfilling responsibilities and completing agreements in Scots 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.
