A quick definition of provisione legis:

Term: PROVISIONE LEGIS

Definition: Provisione legis means that something is done according to the law. For example, when someone inherits property because the law says they should, without any special appointment or agreement from the previous owner, they are said to inherit provisione legis. They are called heirs-at-law.

A more thorough explanation:

Provisione legis (pronounced pruh-vizh-ee-oh-nee lee-jis) is a Latin term used in law. It means "by provision of law."

For example, when someone inherits property or assets from a deceased family member without a will, they are said to inherit provisione legis. This means that they inherit according to the laws of the state or country where the deceased person lived, rather than by the choice of the deceased person.

Another example is when a person is appointed as a legal guardian for a child who has no living parents. The appointment is made provisione legis because the law provides for the appointment of a guardian in such situations.

These examples illustrate how provisione legis refers to situations where the law provides for a certain outcome, rather than leaving the decision up to individual choice or preference.
