Pluries

I. Oftentimes; many times; frequently; the emphatic word of a clause in the Latin form of a writ issued after a first and second of the same kind had been issued without effect; the writ so issued. The fourth writ is called the second pluries.

/. Many times. A writ issued after the first writ and an alias writ liave failed of effect; the third writ. A second pluries is a fourth writ, etc.

Many times; often. after a first and second writ of the same kind have been issued and returned not executed. The distinctive clause is, in the Latin form, prcecipimus tibi, sicut pluries prcecipimus, quod, &c, — we command you, as we have many times commanded you, that, &o. This clause is literally translated in the English forms, and the word pluries has been adopted as the name of the clause and of the writ itself; the second writ in order being termed an alias writ, the next is a pluries writ, and others, i£ a distinction is required, are called second pluries, third pluries, &c., successively.

in practice, is a term by which a writ issued subsequently to an alias of the same kind is denominated. The pluries writ is made by adding after we command you, the words, “ as often times we have commanded you.” This is called the first pluries, the next is called the second pluries, &c.
