ChatGPT
non prosequitur
"Non prosequitur" is not a standard term in English or Latin. However, it seems it could be a combination of "non sequitur" and "prosequitur". "Non sequitur" is a Latin term that literally means "it does not follow" and is used to refer to an argument or statement that does not logically follow from the previous argument or statement. On the other hand, "prosequitur" is Latin for "he/she pursues", but it is not commonly used in English. Therefore, "non prosequitur" may not hold a clear or universally accepted meaning.
Webster Dictionary
Non prosequitur
a judgment entered against the plaintiff in a suit where he does not appear to prosecute. See Nolle prosequi
Etymology: [L. he does not prosecute.]
