A quick definition of ventre inspiciendo:

Ventre inspiciendo is a legal term that refers to a writ, or court order, that requires a sheriff to summon a jury of women to examine a woman who claims to be pregnant. This writ is also known as de ventre inspiciendo. The purpose of the examination is to determine whether the woman is actually pregnant, and if so, the stage of her pregnancy. This information is important in cases where the woman's pregnancy is relevant to a legal matter, such as an inheritance dispute or a criminal trial.

A more thorough explanation:

Ventre inspiciendo is a Latin term that refers to a legal writ that allows a court to order a physical examination of a woman's abdomen to determine if she is pregnant. This examination was typically conducted by a group of women known as matrons.

  • Venire facias tot matronas: This is a writ that requires a sheriff to summon a jury of matrons to execute a writ de ventre inspiciendo. For example, if a woman was accused of a crime and claimed to be pregnant, the court might order a ventre inspiciendo to determine if she was telling the truth.

These examples illustrate how ventre inspiciendo was used in legal proceedings to determine if a woman was pregnant. The examination was conducted by a group of women to ensure that the process was as non-invasive as possible.
