It has a connotation that some thing or some action has the characteristics of some other thing or action and will be treated as that other thing or action. I am sure this is perfectly confusing, so here are examples. A landlord makes a tenants living conditions so intolerable that the tenant moves out even tho the landlord had no legal cause to evict the tenant. That landlord constructively evicted that tenant.
