Definition of equally divided

Definition: Equally divided means:

  1. When property is divided per capita (meaning each person gets an equal share) among heirs after the owner's death. For example, if a person has three children and their will states that their property should be equally divided among them, each child will receive one-third of the property.
  2. When a group, such as a court or legislature, has the same number of votes on each side of an issue or dispute.

For example, if a court case has three judges and they are equally divided on a decision, the case may need to be retried or appealed to a higher court.

Another example is if a board of directors has an even number of members and they are equally divided on a decision, the decision may not be made and further discussion or voting may be necessary.

Simple Definition

Equally Divided: When something is divided equally, it means that it is split up into the same parts for everyone involved. For example, if a person dies and leaves their property to their children, if it is equally divided, each child will get the same amount. This can also happen in a group, like a court or a legislature, where each side has the same number of votes on an issue.

The difference between ordinary and extraordinary is practice.
