adjournment

Read a random definition: centesima

A quick definition of adjournment:

Adjournment is when a meeting or court session is put off until a later time. Sometimes, a meeting or court session may end without setting a time to meet again, which is called adjournment sine die or adjournment without day. This usually happens when the assembly is dissolved or when the body will not meet again until a time prescribed by the bylaws or constitution. Conditional adjournment is when the assembly will reconvene at an officer's or board's call or under other defined circumstances.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: The act of postponing a court session or meeting until a later time.

Example: The judge announced the adjournment of the court session until the following week.

Adjournment sine die: The ending of a meeting or assembly without setting a time to reconvene.

Example: The annual convention ended with an adjournment sine die, meaning there was no set date for the next meeting.

Conditional adjournment: An adjournment that does not schedule another meeting, but provides for reconvening under specific circumstances.

Example: The board of directors agreed to a conditional adjournment, stating that they would reconvene if a certain proposal was approved by the shareholders.

These examples illustrate how adjournment refers to the postponement of a meeting or assembly, either temporarily or indefinitely. The term "adjournment sine die" is used when there is no set date for the next meeting, while a "conditional adjournment" allows for reconvening under specific circumstances.
