Praemunire \Pr[ae]m`u*ni"re\, n. [Corrupted from L. praemonere
   to forewarn, cite. See {Admonish}.] (Eng. Law)
   (a) The offense of introducing foreign authority into
       England, the penalties for which were originally intended
       to depress the civil power of the pope in the kingdom.
   (b) The writ grounded on that offense. --Wharton.
   (c) The penalty ascribed for the offense of pr[ae]munire.

             Wolsey incurred a pr[ae]munire, and forfeited his
             honor, estate, and life.             --South.

   Note: The penalties of pr[ae]munire were subsequently applied
         to many other offenses; but prosecutions upon a
         pr[ae]munire are at this day unheard of in the English
         courts. --Blackstone.
