A quick definition of delinquency:

Delinquency: When someone doesn't do something they were supposed to do, or breaks a rule or law. It can also mean when someone owes money and hasn't paid it back on time. A person who is a delinquent might have done something really bad or wrong, like hurting someone or stealing something. Sometimes, if a young person is a delinquent, they are called a juvenile delinquent.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Delinquency refers to a failure or omission, which can be a violation of a law or duty. It can also refer to a debt that is overdue in payment.

Examples:

  • Juvenile Delinquency: Refers to the behavior of minors who violate the law or engage in activities that are considered inappropriate for their age group. For example, a teenager who shoplifts or vandalizes property is considered a juvenile delinquent.
  • Delinquency Charge: Refers to a fee or penalty that is charged when a debt is overdue. For example, if you fail to pay your credit card bill on time, you may be charged a delinquency fee.
  • Delinquent Obligation: Refers to an obligation that is past due or unperformed. For example, if you have a loan that you haven't paid back on time, it is considered a delinquent obligation.

These examples illustrate how delinquency can refer to different types of failures or omissions. Juvenile delinquency refers to the behavior of minors who violate the law, while delinquency charges and delinquent obligations refer to financial obligations that are overdue. In all cases, delinquency implies a failure to meet an obligation or responsibility.

Wait. So u talked about helping working class people?
Yeah, my ultimate goal in law is to help working class people. That's what the PI people say but I think the only real way to do it is through fed clerks or big law.
Wouldn't we all love to live in a Jeffersonian society.
Full respect
Why do you think that you can make an impact for working class people through Big Law though, usually thats asssistance of the big corporations
Yes, an agrarian, non-industrialized society would be quite lovely. I still believe its possible to go back tho, in some form
