Simple English definitions for legal terms

locality

Read a random definition: . BIZ

A quick definition of locality:

Locality: A specific area or neighborhood where people live or work.

In the past, in Scottish law, a widow who had locality lands could not claim a share of her husband's real property.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A specific area or region, usually referring to a neighborhood or community.

Example 1: The new restaurant is located in a busy locality, surrounded by shops and other businesses.

Example 2: In Scottish law, locality refers to the land that a widow is entitled to use under the terms of her marriage contract. This land cannot be used to claim a share of her husband's real property.

These examples illustrate how locality can refer to a specific area or region, whether it's a busy commercial area or a legal term in Scottish law. It is important to understand the context in which the term is being used to fully grasp its meaning.
