Explanation


Explanation:
The meaning is approximately:

"This is the decision of the court:"

It is always said as an introduction to the decision of a court.

There is no English equivalent and it would be a good idea o leave it out:

The Supreme Court confirms the decision of the High Court (Landsretten).

It is hereby adjudged (ordered and decreed)


Explanation:
That's the Eng. & Welsh version - Scots version likely to be similar or the same.

The Americans tend to be expansive. esp. in Texas:

'... is hereby confirmed and it is hereby *ordered adjudged and decreed* by the Court that the following named applicants be and they are hereby adjudged and decreed ...'
