Sanity

Sanitymed. jur. The state of a person who has a sound understanding; the reverse of insanity.
RELATED TERMS--------------------------------------
State
1) Government. In its most enlarged sense, it signifies a self-sufficient body of persons united together in one community for the defence of their rights, and to do right and justice to foreigners. In this sense, the state means the whole people united into one body politic; and the state, and the people of the state, are equivalent expressions. 2) Condition of persons. This word has various acceptations. If we inquire into its origin, it will be found to come from the Latin status, which is derived from the verb stare, sto, whence has been made statio, which signifies the place where a person is located, stat, to fulfil the obligations which are imposed upon him.
Person
This word is applied to men, women and children, who are called natural persons.
Reverse
An action of a higher court in setting aside or revoking a lower court decision.
SIMILAR TERMS--------------------------------------

Sanctions
Court-ordered punishment.
Sanctuary
A place of refuge, where the process of the law cannot be executed.
Sane memory
By this is meant that understanding which enables a man to make contracts and his will, and to perform such other acts as are authorized by law.

Sanity
Sans ceo que
The same as Absque hoc.
Sans nombre
This is a French phrase, which signifies without number.
Sans recours

Satisdaction
Civil law. This word is derived from the same root as satisfaction; for, in the same manner that to fulfil the demand which is made upon us, is called satisfaction, so satisdaction takes place when he who demands something has agreed to receive sureties instead of the thing itself.
Satisfaction
1) Practice. An entry made on the record, by which a party in whose favor a judgment was rendered, declares that he has been satisfied and paid. 2) Construction by courts of equity. Satisfaction is defined to be the donation of a thing, with the intention, express or implied, that such donation is to be an extinguishment of some existing right or claim in the donee.
