A more thorough explanation:

DE CORPORE COMITATUS

De corpore comitatus is a Latin term used in law to refer to "from the body of the county." It is used to distinguish a larger area of the county from a smaller neighborhood or area.

For example, if a crime was committed in a specific neighborhood, the court may need to determine if the trial should take place in that neighborhood or in the larger area of the county. If the trial is held in the larger area of the county, it would be referred to as de corpore comitatus.

Another example could be the election of a county official. The official may be elected by the entire county, or just by a specific neighborhood. If they are elected by the entire county, it would be referred to as de corpore comitatus.

The examples illustrate how de corpore comitatus is used to distinguish a larger area of the county from a smaller neighborhood or area. It is important in legal proceedings and elections to determine the appropriate jurisdiction and representation, and de corpore comitatus helps to clarify this distinction.
