When a judge pronounces a 'decree nisi ' the word nisi means unless.
The word nisi is not widely used in place of unless, but the law contains many rules, comments and descriptions which are in Latin, and are used by lawyers as a shorthand way of saying something that they all understand.
A good example is the legal doctrine that the law does not want its time wasted by trivialities. Long ago this was expressed in an English court as "de minimis non curat lex", or "the law does not care about trifles". An attorney who wishes to object to the judge that something is trivial just says "de minimis".
