Simple English definitions for legal terms

derogatory clause

Read a random definition: down market

A quick definition of derogatory clause:

A derogatory clause is a part of a legal document that says it cannot be changed or cancelled. However, this kind of clause is not effective because a government or organization cannot limit its own power. In some cases, a derogatory clause can also be a secret part of a will that says any other will without that clause is not valid. This is meant to protect against someone forcing the person making the will to change it.

A more thorough explanation:

A derogatory clause is a provision in a legal document, such as a contract or a will, that states that the document or a part of it cannot be changed or revoked. However, such provisions are considered ineffective because a sovereign legislature cannot restrict its successors.

For example, a contract may contain a derogatory clause that prohibits any changes to the terms of the agreement. However, if the parties involved in the contract want to modify the terms, they can do so because the derogatory clause is not legally binding.

Another example of a derogatory clause is a provision that a testator inserts secretly in a will, stating that any later will not having that precise clause is invalid. This clause seeks to protect against a later will that may have been obtained through undue influence, duress, or violence.

Overall, a derogatory clause is ineffective because it cannot restrict the power of a sovereign legislature or prevent changes to a legal document.

I think tik tok is evil and coming from a national defense background, working in PSYOP and in the intelligence community I can promise it is.

@BulbasaurNoLikeCardio: Yeah but like half the general officers are compromised so we might as well just give this country to China already. The head of the JAG corps used to tell us how much he loved Tiktok and he was a 1 star. These people should be court martialed. I hope Trump follows through on that promise the most.
