Simple English definitions for legal terms

raise

Read a random definition: Mother Hubbard clause

A quick definition of raise:

Term: RAISE

Definition: When something goes up, we say it has been raised. This can mean the price of something going up, or the amount of money collected for a good cause going up. Sometimes, people bring up new ideas or topics for discussion, and we say they have raised them. If someone changes a check to make it worth more money, we say they have raised it.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: To increase, gather, introduce, create, or fraudulently alter something.

Examples:

  • The company decided to raise their prices due to increased production costs.
  • The non-profit organization was able to raise enough funds to build a new community center.
  • During the meeting, the CEO raised the issue of employee morale and suggested ways to improve it.
  • The artist's unique style raised her to fame in the art world.
  • The criminal raised the amount on the check by altering the numbers.

These examples illustrate the different ways in which the term "raise" can be used. It can refer to increasing prices or funds, introducing a topic for discussion, establishing oneself in a certain field, or even committing fraud.
