Per curiam

Per curiam ( lat. , By the court, on behalf of the court ') is a legal concept that a court judgment describes that the whole point of a collegial court anonymously and without dissenting opinion formulated. In the case of a procedural system with a majority principle , this is the position of the decision-making majority.
