A quick definition of O.S.C.:

Term: O.S.C.

Definition: O.S.C stands for Order to Show Cause. It's a legal term that means someone has to explain why they did something or why they shouldn't be punished for something they did. It's like when a teacher asks you to explain why you didn't do your homework or why you were talking in class.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: O.S.C is the abbreviation for Order to Show Cause. An Order to Show Cause is a legal document that requires a person or entity to appear in court and explain why a certain action should not be taken against them.

Example: If a landlord wants to evict a tenant, they may file an Order to Show Cause with the court. The tenant would then be required to appear in court and explain why they should not be evicted.

Explanation: The example illustrates how an Order to Show Cause is used in a legal context. It is a way for one party to compel another party to appear in court and provide a justification for their actions or inaction. The court will then make a decision based on the evidence presented.
