A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Ponit loco suo (poh-nit loh-ko s[y]oo-oh) is a Latin phrase that means "puts in his place." It was commonly used in a power of attorney document. The abbreviation for this phrase is po. lo. suo.

Example 1: In a power of attorney document, John appointed his brother as his attorney-in-fact and gave him the power to manage his finances. The document stated that the brother could "ponit loco suo" when making financial decisions on John's behalf.

Example 2: During a heated argument, Sarah put her rude coworker in his place by reminding him of his place in the company hierarchy. She figuratively "ponit loco suo" by asserting her authority.

These examples illustrate the use of "ponit loco suo" to indicate the act of putting someone or something in its proper place or position. In the first example, John's brother is given the power to make financial decisions on John's behalf, but only within the limits set by John. In the second example, Sarah asserts her authority over her coworker and reminds him of his place in the company hierarchy.
