In English law. Persons who refuse to take the oaths, required by law, to support the government Non Jus on regnla, sod regula en jure. The law does not arise from the rule (or maxim,) but the rule from the law. Tray. Latin: Max. 384. Non Jus, sed seisina, facit stipitem. Not right, but seisin, makes a stock. Fleta lib. 6, c. 2, f 2. It is not a mere right to enter on lands, but actual seisin, which makes a person the root or stock from which all future inheritance by right of blood must be derived. 2 Bl. Comm. .209, 312.
