Sine die (si¯'niš di¯'e¯)
Without a day specified for a future meeting; indefinitely: Parliament was adjourned sine die yesterday.
A legislative body adjourns sine die when it adjourns without appointing a day on which to assemble again. A court may also adjourn a matter sine die, which means the matter is stayed permanently. This may be due to various reasons, for example, the case is started with a wrong procedure chosen, and then the judge may adjourn the matter sine die so that the party may choose to start the action again with the correct procedure.

There's no better way of using the imagination than the study of law.
No poet ever interpreted nature as freely as a lawyer interprets truth.
