acquiescence
Read a random definition: in-kind support and maintenance (ISM)
A quick definition of acquiescence:
Acquiescence: When someone doesn't say or do anything to stop something from happening, it means they are okay with it. This is called acquiescence. For example, if you don't say anything when your friend takes your toy without asking, you are showing acquiescence. In some cases, like with patents or international law, acquiescence can have legal consequences.
A more thorough explanation:
Definition: Acquiescence is when someone passively accepts or gives implied consent to an action or situation.
1. In patents, acquiescence refers to a competitor's inaction or acceptance of a patent's validity. For example, if a company takes a license or tries to design around a patent, it can be used as evidence that the patent is valid and enforceable.
2. In international law, acquiescence is when a country does not protest against a foreign claim that would normally require a response to protect their rights. This can result in the acceptance of the claim as legally binding.
Both examples illustrate how acquiescence involves passive acceptance or inaction. In patents, a competitor's lack of action can be used as evidence of the patent's validity. In international law, a country's failure to protest against a foreign claim can result in the acceptance of that claim as legally binding. In both cases, acquiescence implies consent or acceptance of a situation or action.
