Simple English definitions for legal terms

due influence

Read a random definition: statement of work

A quick definition of due influence:

Due influence refers to the power that one person has over another through persuasion, argument, or appealing to their emotions. It is a positive form of influence that is based on trust and respect.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Due influence refers to the power that one person has over another, often as a result of persuasion, argument, or appeal to the person's emotions or affections. This influence is considered appropriate and fair, and is not coercive or manipulative.

Example: A teacher who inspires and motivates their students to work hard and achieve their goals is an example of due influence. The teacher is using their knowledge and experience to guide and encourage their students, but they are not forcing them to do anything against their will.

Another example: A parent who advises their child to pursue a certain career path based on their interests and abilities is also an example of due influence. The parent is providing guidance and support, but ultimately the decision is up to the child.

These examples illustrate how due influence is a positive and constructive form of influence that respects the autonomy and agency of the person being influenced. It is based on trust, respect, and mutual understanding, and is not intended to manipulate or control the other person.

@mastermonkey45: Looking at some of the recent decisions in relation to when they went complete, I'd say it's a good sign. It seems many declines were sent within about 5-6 weeks of completion. Given those were applications that were SENT in January, I'd say that means you're still solidly in the running. :)

Give it 4 more weeks at least. Everyone in this chat needs to wait longer.
