Legal Definitions - nuntiatio

nuntiatio

A nuntiatio is a formal declaration or protest. In history, it was used to place an injunction on the construction of a new building by the person protesting the construction.

Example 1: A group of neighbors filed a nuntiatio against the construction of a new high-rise building in their residential area.

Example 2: The local government issued a nuntiatio to stop the construction of a new bridge due to environmental concerns.

The examples illustrate how a nuntiatio was used to formally declare a protest against the construction of a new building or project. It was a legal tool used to stop or delay construction until the concerns of the protesting party were addressed.
