Read a random definition: Washington Case-Law

A quick definition of lex majoris partis:

Term: LEX MAJORIS PARTIS

Definition: Majority rule. This means that when a group of people need to make a decision, the choice that most people agree on is the one that will be chosen. It's like when you and your friends want to decide what game to play, and most of you want to play tag, so you all play tag. This is called the law of the major party, and it applies to things like voting and making decisions in groups.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Lex majoris partis is a Latin term that means "law of the major party." It refers to the principle of majority rule, where the decision of the majority is considered as the law.

For example, in a democratic election, the candidate who receives the majority of votes is declared the winner. This is because the principle of lex majoris partis dictates that the decision of the majority should be respected and followed.

Another example is in a parliamentary vote. If a bill is being considered, the decision of the majority of members will determine whether the bill passes or not. This is because the principle of lex majoris partis applies, and the decision of the majority is considered as the law.

In summary, lex majoris partis is a fundamental principle of democracy and parliamentary procedure, where the decision of the majority is respected and followed.
