Term: IMMATERIAL AVERMENT
Definition: An immaterial averment is a statement that is not relevant or necessary to prove a legal claim. Averment means a positive declaration or statement. So, an immaterial averment is a statement that does not add any value to the case. For example, if someone is suing for breach of contract, stating their favorite color would be an immaterial averment because it has nothing to do with the case.
