Other Similar Legal Terms:

Law Terms own recognizance (OR) is A way the defendant can get out of jail, without paying bail, by promising to appear in court when next required to be there. Sometimes called personal recognizance. Only those with strong ties to the community, such as a steady job, local family and no history of failing to appear in court, are good candidates for OR release. If the charge is very serious, however, OR may not be an option.

Law Terms sound mind is A requirement for anyone making a legal document, such as a will or healthcare directive. For example, although he can be eccentric or forgetful, a person writing a will must know what he owns, the identities of his family and close friends, and how the will distributes his property. If a person isnt of sound mind, and someone later challenges the validity of the document in a lawsuit, the judge could rule that the document is invalid and has no legal effect. (Such lawsuits are quite rare.)

Law Terms surviving spouse is A widow or widower.
