A quick definition of sequestratio:

Term: SEQUESTRATIO

Definition: Sequestratio means taking something away and keeping it separate from everything else. It's like putting a toy in a special box so that nobody can play with it. In legal terms, it means taking someone's property or money and holding it until a dispute is resolved or a debt is paid.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Sequestratio is a Latin term that refers to the legal process of seizing or confiscating property or assets by a court or government authority. This is usually done to ensure that the property or assets are used to pay off debts or to settle a legal dispute.

Example: If a person owes a large amount of money to a creditor and is unable to pay it back, the creditor may seek a court order for sequestratio of the person's assets. This means that the court will take possession of the person's property or assets and sell them to pay off the debt.

Another example: In some cases, a government may use sequestratio to take control of a company's assets if the company is found to be engaging in illegal activities or violating regulations. The government may then sell off the assets to recover any losses or damages caused by the company's actions.

These examples illustrate how sequestratio is used as a legal tool to ensure that debts are paid and justice is served. It is important to note that sequestratio is a serious legal action that should only be taken as a last resort.

@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.
