Explanation:
Non voglio distrarvi dal contesto della domanda in questo caso, ma ci tenevo a indicare il vero significato della frase così come appare in Black's Law Dictionary, Sesta edizione. La frase latina da cui è presa la versione pertinente in questo caso è "de cuius hereditate agitur".

Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
disagree  Giusi Pasi: scusa, vittorio, ma la frase latina significa: si procede con l'eredità del defunto. Il de cuius è sempre e solo il deceduto.

  -> E chi sta dicendo il contrario? Facevo solo notare che fuori dell'Italia "de cujus" può avere un significato leggermente diverso. Vedi Black. Vi avevo avvertiti di non distrarvi. Buon lavoro!
