A quick definition of sequatur sub suo periculo:

Term: SEQUATUR SUB SUO PERICULO

Definition: Sequatur sub suo periculo is a legal term that means "let him follow at his peril." It refers to a writ that is issued when a sheriff returns "nihil" (meaning nothing) to several summonses. Specifically, it is a writ that is issued after the sheriff returns "nihil" to a warrant ad warrantizandum and following an alias and a pluries writ. Another related term is "sicut alias," which refers to a second writ that is issued when the first one was not executed.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Sequatur sub suo periculo is a Latin term used in law that means "let him follow at his peril." It refers to a writ that is available when a sheriff returns "nihil" (meaning nothing) to several summonses. Specifically, it is a writ issued after the sheriff returns "nihil" to a warrant ad warrantizandum and following an alias and a pluries writ.

Example: If a sheriff is unable to find a defendant after being served with a writ, they may return "nihil" to the court. In this case, the court may issue a sequatur sub suo periculo writ, which means that the defendant is responsible for any consequences that may arise from not appearing in court.

Explanation: The example illustrates how the term sequatur sub suo periculo is used in law. If a defendant fails to appear in court after being served with a writ, they may be held responsible for any consequences that may arise from their absence. The sequatur sub suo periculo writ serves as a warning to the defendant that they are proceeding at their own risk.

Additional Example: Another example of the use of sequatur sub suo periculo is in cases where a defendant absconds, and the plaintiff would like to proceed to an outlawry against them. In this case, an original writ must be sued out regularly, and after that a capias. If the sheriff cannot find the defendant upon the first writ, an alias writ is issued, and after that a pluries, to the same effect as the former. Only after these words "we command you," this clause is inserted, "as we have formerly," or, "as we have often commanded you;" "sicut alias."

Explanation: This example further illustrates how the term sequatur sub suo periculo is used in law. It shows how the writ is issued after the sheriff returns "nihil" to a warrant ad warrantizandum and following an alias and a pluries writ. The example also shows how the term "sicut alias" is used in law to refer to a second writ issued when the first one was not executed.

im distracting myself by schizo-scrolling r/lawschoolamissions and every conceivable data point on this godforsaken website
it is not working
Haaa I naturally want to do that too. I’m trying to stop. They need a surgeon general’s warning on this site for perspective law students
i spend more time on here then anything else trying to rationalize that the waves from last year will match waves for this year (they won't) and that the stats of people with the same stats are indicative of my own (they aren't)
There aren't many people in my stat range so I pretty much know every result in my range after being on here for a few years
