A quick definition of pone per vadium:

Term: PONE PER VADIUM

Definition: Pone per vadium is a type of legal order that requires a sheriff to seize some of a defendant's property and demand that the defendant find sureties. This order is issued when a defendant fails to appear in response to an initial writ. The name comes from the words of the writ, which instruct the defendant to "put by gage and safe pledges."

A more thorough explanation:

Pone Per Vadium

Pone per vadium is a Latin term that refers to a writ used in history to summon a defendant who has failed to appear in response to an initial writ. The writ commands the sheriff to attach some of the defendant's property and require the defendant to find sureties. The writ was named after the words used in it, "pone per vadium et salvos plegios," which means "put by gage and safe pledges."

For example, if a defendant fails to appear in court after being summoned, the court may issue a pone per vadium writ to the sheriff. The sheriff will then attach some of the defendant's property and require the defendant to find sureties before releasing the property.

Another example is if a person owes a debt and fails to pay it, the creditor may use a pone per vadium writ to attach the debtor's property and require them to find sureties before releasing the property.

These examples illustrate how the pone per vadium writ was used in history to ensure that defendants and debtors appeared in court and paid their debts. It was a way to hold people accountable for their actions and ensure that justice was served.

@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.
