A more thorough explanation: “Nihil dicit” is a Latin legal term that translates to “he says nothing.” In legal terms, it refers to a situation where a defendant fails to respond or appear in court after being properly served with a legal notice or summons. This failure to respond can result in a default judgment being entered against the defendant.
Example: In the case of Smith v. Jones, the defendant failed to file a response to the plaintiff’s complaint within the specified time frame, resulting in a judgment by default known as “nihil dicit.”
