Hello eddie: I have no idea why s/he used dejure. . . But in my case, here's why I do it. . . just for the record !!!

De jure. . . Descriptive of a condition in which there has been total compliance with all requirements of law.
Of right; legitimate; lawful; by right and just title. In this sense it is the contrary of De facto !!!

Black's Law Dictionary 5th Ed. p.382
