Simple English definitions for legal terms

stoppage

Read a random definition: Dred Scott v. Sandford (1857)

A quick definition of stoppage:

Stoppage: When something gets in the way and stops you from doing something else, it's called a stoppage. For example, if a road is blocked, it can cause a stoppage of traffic. In legal terms, stoppage can also refer to when someone owes money and their pay is reduced to pay off the debt.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Stoppage refers to an obstacle or barrier that prevents the completion of a particular action or task. It can also refer to a legal process where a person or organization withholds payment to offset a debt owed to them.

Example 1: The stoppage of traffic on the highway due to a car accident caused a delay in our arrival time.

Example 2: The factory experienced a stoppage in production when the machinery broke down.

Example 3: The company implemented a stoppage in pay for an employee who owed them money.

In the first example, the stoppage refers to the delay caused by the car accident. In the second example, the stoppage refers to the halt in production due to machinery failure. In the third example, the stoppage refers to the withholding of pay to offset a debt owed by the employee.
