A quick definition of per quod:

Term: PER QUOD

Definition: Per quod is a Latin term that means "by which" or "through which." It is used in legal language to refer to a fact or circumstance that is necessary to establish a cause of action or claim. In simpler terms, it means that something happened as a result of something else. For example, if someone is suing for damages caused by a car accident, they may need to prove that they suffered injuries per quod the accident occurred.

A more thorough explanation:

Term: PER QUOD
Definition: Per quod is a Latin term that means "by which" or "through which." It is used in legal language to refer to a statement or fact that is not actionable on its own but becomes so when combined with other facts or circumstances.
Example: In a defamation case, the plaintiff must prove that the defendant made a false statement that caused harm. If the statement alone is not defamatory, the plaintiff may use a per quod claim by showing how the statement, when combined with other facts, caused harm.
Explanation: The example illustrates how per quod is used in a legal context to establish a cause of action. The false statement alone may not be enough to prove defamation, but when combined with other facts, it becomes actionable. Per quod allows the plaintiff to connect the statement to the harm caused.
