A quick definition of prorogation:

Term: PROROGATION

Definition: Prorogation means to delay or postpone something to another day. In the context of law, it refers to the ending of a legislative session until the next term. In civil law, it can also mean extending a court's or judge's jurisdiction by the agreement of all parties involved in a case. Sometimes, a party may not request a judge's recusal despite knowing that the judge is not qualified to hear the case, which is called tacit prorogation.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Prorogation is the act of postponing something to another day. In legal terms, it refers to the discontinuation of a legislative session until its next term. It can also refer to the extension of a court's or judge's jurisdiction by consent of the parties to a case that it would otherwise be incompetent to hear.

Examples:

  • The parliament's prorogation was met with protests from the opposition parties.

The first example illustrates prorogation in the context of a legislative session being postponed until its next term. The second example illustrates prorogation in the context of a court's jurisdiction being extended by consent of the parties to a case.
