A quick definition of impertinent:

Term: IMPERTINENT

Definition: Impertinent means something that is not relevant or important to the matter at hand. For example, if someone is talking about their favorite food and you start talking about your favorite color, that would be impertinent because it has nothing to do with the topic being discussed. In legal terms, impertinent evidence or allegations are ones that do not help prove or disprove the case and are not important for the court to consider.

A more thorough explanation:

Impertinent is an adjective that means irrelevant. It refers to something that has no value in proving or disproving a matter in question. It can also describe a pleaded allegation that has no substantial relation to the action and will not affect the court's decision.

  • The witness's testimony was impertinent to the case and was not considered by the judge.
  • The lawyer objected to the impertinent question asked by the opposing counsel.
  • The plaintiff's impertinent allegations were dismissed by the court as they had no bearing on the case.

These examples illustrate how impertinent refers to something that is not relevant or useful in a particular situation. In the first example, the witness's testimony was not helpful in proving or disproving the matter in question. In the second example, the question asked by the opposing counsel was not related to the case and was therefore impertinent. In the third example, the plaintiff's allegations had no bearing on the case and were therefore impertinent.
