nonprivity

Read a random definition: exceptio plurium concubentium defense

A quick definition of nonprivity:

Nonprivity: When two parties are not in a contract together, they are said to be in a state of nonprivity. This means that they do not have a direct legal relationship with each other. There are two types of nonprivity: horizontal and vertical. Horizontal nonprivity occurs when someone is affected by a product but did not buy it directly, such as a houseguest who gets sick from food bought at a deli. Vertical nonprivity occurs when someone buys a product from a middleman and later sues the manufacturer, such as buying a drill from a hardware store and suing the manufacturer.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Nonprivity refers to the state of not being in privity of contract with another party. It means that there is a lack of privity between two parties.

Examples:

  • Horizontal nonprivity: This occurs when the plaintiff is not a buyer within the distributive chain, but one who consumes, uses, or is otherwise affected by the goods. For instance, if a houseguest becomes ill after eating meat that her host bought from the local deli, she is in horizontal nonprivity with the deli.
  • Vertical nonprivity: This occurs when the plaintiff is a buyer within the distributive chain who did not buy directly from the defendant. For example, if someone buys a drill from a local hardware store and later sues the drill's manufacturer, they are in vertical nonprivity with the manufacturer.

The examples illustrate that nonprivity occurs when there is no direct contractual relationship between two parties. In horizontal nonprivity, the plaintiff is not a buyer but is still affected by the goods. In vertical nonprivity, the plaintiff is a buyer but did not buy directly from the defendant.
