A quick definition of perimere causam:

Perimere causam is a Latin term that means "to put an end to the cause." It is often used in legal contexts, particularly in reference to a peremptory defense, which is a defendant's stated reason why the plaintiff or prosecutor has no valid case. A defense is something a person says to explain why they should not be punished or held responsible for something. Perimere causam means to stop the reason why someone is being accused.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: To put an end to the cause. This phrase is used in legal contexts, particularly in reference to the legal effect of a peremptory defense. A peremptory defense is a defendant's stated reason why the plaintiff or prosecutor has no valid case.

Example: If a defendant claims that the plaintiff's case is invalid because the statute of limitations has expired, this is a peremptory defense. The defendant is essentially saying that the plaintiff waited too long to bring the case and therefore has no legal right to sue. By using the phrase "perimere causam," the defendant is indicating that they are seeking to put an end to the cause of action (i.e. the plaintiff's legal claim).
