to express that a thing is done at one time
which ought to have been performed at an-
other. Leave of court must be obtained to
do things nunc pro tunc, and this is granted
to answer the purposes of justice, but never
to do injustice A judgment nunc pro tunc
can be entered only when the delay has
arisen from the act of the court.
i beg your pardon! i did NOT screw up, i was just too busy to do it!
