Simple English definitions for legal terms

allegation

Read a random definition: elements (of a crime)

A quick definition of allegation:

An allegation is when someone says something is true, but they haven't proven it yet. It's like when you tell your friend that you saw a unicorn, but you don't have any pictures or videos to show them. In a court case, someone will make allegations in a complaint or defense, and then they have to show proof that what they said is true.

A more thorough explanation:

An allegation is a statement that claims something is true, but it has not been proven yet. In a legal case, a person or party makes an allegation in a complaint or indictment, and then they use evidence to try to prove it in court.

  • He made an allegation that his neighbor stole his bike, but he had no evidence to prove it.
  • The company is facing allegations of discrimination from former employees.
  • The politician denied the allegations of corruption made against him.

These examples show how an allegation is a claim that something happened or is true, but it has not been proven yet. In the first example, the person is accusing their neighbor of stealing their bike, but they don't have any evidence to support their claim. In the second example, the company is being accused of discrimination, but it has not been proven in court. In the third example, the politician is denying the allegations of corruption made against him, but it is still being investigated.
