Simple English definitions for legal terms
Read a random definition: nuisance per accidens
Entire day: A whole day that lasts for 24 hours, from midnight to midnight. It's the time it takes for the Earth to spin once on its axis. During the day, the sun is up and shining, and it's bright outside. It's different from night, when the sun is down and it's dark outside. An entire day can't be split into parts, and it always starts and ends at midnight.
Definition: An undivided 24-hour period, rather than parts of two or more days aggregated to form a 24-hour period. It must have a legal, fixed, precise time to begin and end, usually starting at midnight and ending at midnight the following day.
Example: If a contract states that a payment is due within three entire days, it means that the payment must be made within 72 hours, starting from midnight of the day the contract was signed.
This example illustrates that an entire day is a continuous period of 24 hours, without any interruptions or breaks. It is important to specify the exact time when an entire day starts and ends, to avoid any confusion or disputes.
