Simple English definitions for legal terms

P.D.

Read a random definition: natural affection

A quick definition of P.D.:

Term: P.D.

Definition: P.D. is an abbreviation that can mean two things. The first is PUBLIC DEFENDER, which is a lawyer who helps people who cannot afford to hire their own lawyer. The second is POLICE DEPARTMENT, which is a group of people who work to keep our communities safe and enforce the law.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: P.D. is an abbreviation that can stand for two different things:

  1. PUBLIC DEFENDER: This is a lawyer who is appointed by the court to represent people who cannot afford to hire their own lawyer. The public defender's job is to defend their client in court and make sure their rights are protected. For example, if someone is accused of a crime but cannot afford a lawyer, they may be assigned a public defender to represent them.
  2. Police department: P.D. can also stand for police department. This is the organization that is responsible for enforcing the law and keeping the community safe. For example, if someone needs to report a crime or ask for help from the police, they may call the P.D.

Both of these examples illustrate the definition of P.D. as an abbreviation for either public defender or police department. The first example shows how a public defender is a lawyer who helps people who cannot afford their own legal representation. The second example shows how the police department is responsible for maintaining law and order in the community.
