condiction Rom. Law.|kənˈdɪkʃən| [ad. L. condictiōn-em formal claim of restitution, n. of action f. condīcĕre to give formal notice, spec. to give notice of a formal claim of restitution, f. con- together + dīcĕre to say, tell.] A formal claim of restitution; reclaim of undue payment.
1818Colebrooke Treat. Oblig. & Contracts I. 201 It cannot be recovered..by an action of condiction of undue payment. 1880Muirhead tr. Instit. Gaius iv. §18 This procedure therefore was quite properly called condictio; for the pursuer gave notice to his opponent to appear on the thirtieth day for the appointment of a judge. In now giving the name of condiction to the personal action in which we maintain that something ought to be given to us, our language is not so appropriate; for at the present day there is no notice given. |
