A quick definition of stet processus:

Term: STET PROCESSUS

Definition: Stet processus is a legal term that means "let the process stand." It is an agreement between parties involved in a legal case to suspend further proceedings. This is often used by a plaintiff to pause the case instead of dismissing it entirely.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Stet processus (stet pr-ses-s), n. [Law Latin “let the process stand”] is a historical legal term used to describe an agreement between parties to stay further proceedings. It is similar to a nolle prosequi, and it was typically used by a plaintiff to suspend an action rather than suffer a nonsuit.

Example 1: In a civil lawsuit, the plaintiff and defendant may agree to a stet processus to allow time for settlement negotiations.

Example 2: A prosecutor may enter a stet processus in a criminal case if they do not have enough evidence to proceed with the trial.

These examples illustrate how a stet processus can be used to temporarily halt legal proceedings. It allows the parties involved to take a break from the case and potentially come to a resolution without having to go through a trial or dismissal.
