As I stated in this section's introduction page, the genus Canis itself is a rather recent development. Some species of this genus, such as the modern grey wolf, have only come about in the past one million years. Other canids, such as foxes, are older by comparison. The grey fox, Urocyon cinereogenteus is widely considered to be the most primitive canid alive today.
Court order. A court order is an official proclamation by a judge (or panel of judges) that defines the legal relationships between the parties to a hearing, a trial, an appeal or other court proceedings. Such ruling requires or authorizes the carrying out of certain steps by one or more parties to a case.
[Latin, You have the body.] A writ (court order) that commands an individual or a government official who has restrained another to produce the prisoner at a designated time and place so that the court can determine the legality of custody and decide whether to order the prisoner's release.
