Simple English definitions for legal terms

A quick definition of nonparty:

Term: Nonparty

Definition: Nonparty refers to someone who is not directly involved in a legal case or contract. Parties are the people who are suing or being sued, or who have agreed to a contract. Nonparties can still be involved in legal proceedings, have rights or responsibilities, and may be held accountable in some way.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Nonparty refers to a person or organization that is not directly involved in a legal case or contract as a party. In other words, they are not the plaintiff or defendant in a lawsuit or a signatory to a contract.

For example, if two people are involved in a lawsuit, a nonparty could be a witness who has information relevant to the case but is not directly involved in it. Similarly, in a contract between two companies, a nonparty could be a third company that is not a signatory to the contract but is affected by its terms.

Even though nonparties are not directly involved in the legal relationship, they may still have some involvement in the proceedings, such as being called as a witness or being affected by the outcome of the case or contract.
