Of One's own right; in civil law, the phrase sui juris indicates legal competence, the capacity to manage one's own affairs[1]; of age, independent[2]; it also indicates a person capable of suing and/or being sued in their own name, lat. in personam.[3] The Latin words, sui juris, individually meaning 'self' 'law', corresponds to the Greek αυτονόμος, from which the English word "autonomy" is derived.
