Usage notes
- Often times this phrase will be used in legal context. In legal context, non constat is occasionally a backing for nulling information that was presented by an attorney. Without any tangible proof, non constat information is difficult to argue for.
- It can also be used to explain scientific phenomenon, and religious advocations. For example in medieval times, rulers would issue a 'Non Constat' decree, which would ban the worship of a holy figure.
