A more thorough explanation:

AMITTERE CURIAM

amittere curiam is a Latin legal term that means to lose the right or privilege of attending court.

If a lawyer behaves inappropriately in court, they may be punished by the judge and amittere curiam, meaning they can no longer practice law in that court.

Similarly, if a witness repeatedly fails to show up for their court appearances, they may be deemed to have amittere curiam and lose their right to testify in that case.

The term amittere curiam refers to the loss of a legal privilege, specifically the right to attend court. The examples illustrate how this can happen to both lawyers and witnesses who fail to meet certain standards of behavior or attendance. Once someone has amittere curiam, they are no longer allowed to participate in the legal proceedings of that court.
