A quick definition of parol:
Parol means spoken or not written down. It is often used when talking about the parol evidence rule, which means that only written agreements can be used in court. Parol is not the same as parole, which is when someone is released from prison early.
A more thorough explanation:
Parol
Parol means spoken or unwritten. It is often used in relation to the parol evidence rule, which states that oral agreements made before or at the same time as a written contract cannot be used to contradict or change the terms of the written contract.
For example, if two parties sign a written contract for the sale of a car, but one party claims that there was an additional oral agreement to include new tires, the parol evidence rule would prevent the oral agreement from being used in court to change the terms of the written contract.
Parol should not be confused with "parole," which refers to the early release of a prisoner from prison.
