  JOINDER  
  literally “to join in the cause” can be forced by the court but must be done by open and notorious declaration of the court.  If you appear specially without joinder and not admitting to the jurisdiction of the court, the only recourse is for the court either to force joinder or dismiss the case  
   
  JURISDICTION  
 

The area and matters over which a court has legal authority

 
   
  JUS SANGUINIS  
  Latin COMMON LAW Phrase meaning literally "right of blood" by which the rights of an individual including their citizenship and status is determined not by place of birth, but by ancestral blood relations. For instance, an ancient Roman practice was to permit the children of citizens to also be made citizens by jus sanguinis--because their father was a Roman citizen. This practice is commonly continued today.  
   
  JUS SOLI  
  Latin COMMON LAW Phrase meaning literally "right of soil (land) " by which the rights of an individual including their citizenship and status is determined by the location/territory in which they were born. This form of granting rights is less common than jus sanguinis and in the past few centuries has typically only applied to the policies of a few former European colonial powers.  
     
   
  JUSTICE  
  From 13th Century Latin justus Old English justice, Old French justise meaning "LAWS, RIGHT of LAW- the exercise of legal authority in vindication of ancient Imperial (Roman) rights and precepts by assigning reward or punishment". The word was formed upon the claims of the Roman Cult Popes to have in their possession "untampered" ancient legal documents from Constantinople such as the Codex Justinian and earlier which (apart from several extraordinary anomolies) also claimed the Catholic Church to be "above the law"--hence the ultimate origin of the word Justice = forged laws of Justin and Emperors = Church above the law. The first and foremost pledge of all senior legal representatives of the "Justice" systems in Western christian nations is not to impart fair and true legal judgment, but to protect the Roman Cult from being held accountable for their actions = fundamental meaning of Justice.
