12 hrs confidence:
peremptory or prohibitive Explanation: Law not open to appeal or challenge; final: a peremptory order of the court -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 22 hrs (2012-10-21 15:23:30 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Note for Transphy: If you get Google translate to translate 'προστακτικό', it will suggest 'imperative'. Then, write 'peremptory' in the Google search box and see the definition given by the New Online Dictionary. It will give you two legal examples, the second one being, "Not allowing contradiction or refusal; imperative: The officer issued peremptory commands." -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 22 hrs (2012-10-21 15:47:21 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Another note for Transphy: Now get Google translate to translate "peremptory". It will suggest, "επιτακτικός". Then, put "επιτακτικός" into Google translate and it will suggest "imperative", which is a synonym for "peremptory". Most Greek to English dictionaries will define "προστακτικός" to mean "imperative", but in legal English, the word "peremptory" is often used instead of "imperative", in the same way that "promulgate" is used instead of "announce" and "construe" is used instead of "interpret".
