Buenas tardes:

Aparece en el civil docket de un juzgado de distrito de los Estados Unidos. Había visto in rem con "action" pero nunca con "defendant" ¿alguien sabe qué quiere decir en este contexto?

Gracias de antemano.

From Latin, "against a thing." Concerning the status of a particular piece of property. For instance, in-rem jurisdiction refers to the power of a court over an item of real or personal property. ... Thus, a court with only in-rem jurisdiction may terminate a marriage or declare who owns a piece of land.
