Animo (band)
''Animo'' is a Latin legal term meaning 'with intention' or 'with purpose'. ''Animo'' can be neutral or negative, "a double edged sword," but is more often negative - and rarely positive. It was formerly used only in criminal law, but later in tort cases, which was used by juries to determine "ill will" of the defendant, as in 'animosity'. A number of Latinisms developed: ''animo furandi'' (intent to steal), ''animo felonico'' (intent to commit a felony), and ''animo defamadi'' (intent to defame). These were all negative, but neutral forms arose in estate law: ''animo testandi'' ( animus testandi or testamentary intent) and ''animo revocandi'' (intent to revoke a will). Additional Latinisms include ''animo manendi'' (intent to remain) and ''animo revertendi'' (intent to return), which are essential elements of domicile.

A Latinism (from ) is a word, idiom, or structure in a language other than Latin that is derived from, or suggestive of, the Latin language. The Term ''Latinism'' refers to those loan words that are borrowed into another language directly from Latin (especially frequent among inkhorn terms); English has many of these, as well. There are many Latinisms in English, and other (especially European) languages. Lexical Latinism On the basic level of particular words and lexemes, creation and adoption of Latinisms has a long history, dating back to the ancient times.

Estate Law
Property law is the area of law that governs the various forms of ownership in real property (land) and personal property. Property refers to legally protected claims to resources, such as land and personal property, including intellectual property. Property can be exchanged through contract law, and if property is violated, one could sue under tort law to protect it. The concept, idea or philosophy of property underlies all property law. In some jurisdictions, historically all property was owned by the monarch and it devolved through feudal land tenure or other feudal systems of loyalty and fealty. Theory The word ''property'', in everyday usage, refers to an object (or objects) owned by a person—a car, a book, or a cellphone—and the relationship the person has to it. In law, the concept acquires a more nuanced rendering. Factors to consider include the nature of the object, the relationship between the person and the object, the relationship between a number of people in r ...

Domicile (law)
In law and conflict of laws, domicile is relevant to an individual's "personal law", which includes the law that governs a person's status and their property. It is independent of a person's nationality. Although a domicile may change from time to time, a person has only one domicile, or residence, at any point in their life, no matter what their circumstances. Domicile is distinct from habitual residence, where there is less focus on future intent. As domicile is one of the connecting factors ordinarily used in common law legal systems, a person can never be left without a domicile and a domicile is acquired by everyone at birth. Generally domicile can be divided into domicile of origin, domicile of choice, and domicile by operation of law (also known as domicile of dependency). When determining the domicile of an individual, a court applies its own law and understanding of what domicile is. In some common-law countries, such as Australia and New Zealand, the concept of domic ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
