Locus In Quo: Meaning Of; Visit To When Necessary
The phrase, locus in quo, comes from the Latin language meaning "the place in which". In law, locus in quo refers to the place where the cause of action arose or it may be used as the venue or place mentioned.
It is settled law that a visit to the locus in quo may not be necessary where the disputed area is clear, as a trial Court is to reach its decision, not on the impressions from the locus in quo, but upon its impressions from the evidence before the Court, unless there is a special reason or a specific cause for which an inspection has become necessary or desirable
