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.
In English common law, a writ is a formal written order issued by a body with administrative or judicial jurisdiction; in modern usage, this body is generally a court. The writ of prohibition is issued by a higher court to a lower court prohibiting it from taking up a case because it falls outside the jurisdiction of the lower court. 2  Thus, the higher court transfers the case to itself.
