Under; upon. This Latin preposition is a component part of many phrases, among which are the following: Sub conditione. Upon condition. The proper words to express a condition in a conveyance, and to create an estate upon condition. Sub modo. Under qualification, subject to a condition.
In a qualified manner or sense. Sub poena. Under penalty. A phrase from which is formed the word subpoena (q. v.), — the name of several writs requiring the attendance of a party or of a witness, under a penalty. As the phrase has become practically Anglicized as one word, it is presented again in its alphabetic place so considered. Sub potestate. Under authority. Subject to the power of another, as is a child to his father. Sub silentio. Under silence; in silence; without objection. From the fact that an act passed sub silentio, consent of a party present may be inferred.
