Definition of sicut alias
sicut alias
sicut alias is a Latin term that means "as at another time." In history, it referred to a second writ that was issued when the first one was not executed. For example, if a sheriff couldn't find a defendant after being commanded to do so, an alias writ would be issued to try again.
One example of sicut alias is when a court issues a second summons to a defendant who failed to appear in court after the first summons was issued. Another example is when a sheriff is unable to find a person to serve them with legal papers, so a second writ is issued to try again.
These examples illustrate how sicut alias was used in history to ensure that legal proceedings were carried out properly and that all parties involved had a fair chance to respond to legal actions taken against them.
