A writ is a written order from a court or legal authority that tells someone to do something or not do something. It has been used for a long time in history, and there are many different types of writs. Some examples include a close writ, which is a secret writ that only certain people can see, and an original writ, which starts a legal case and tells the defendant to come to court.
A more thorough explanation:
Definition: A court's written order, in the name of a state or other competent legal authority, commanding the addressee to do or refrain from doing some specified act.
Examples:

- Peremptory writ: At common law, an original writ issued when the plaintiff seeks only general damages, as in an action for trespass.
