Read a random definition: accounts receivable

A quick definition of substitution:

Substitution: Substitution means replacing one person or thing with another. This can happen in different situations. For example, in a legal case, if someone is unable to continue, they can be replaced by someone else. In a will, if the first person named cannot receive something, someone else can take their place. In a contract, a new agreement can replace an old one.

A more thorough explanation:

Substitution means to replace one person or thing with another. This term is often used in legal contexts.

  • Substitution of parties: This is when a party in a legal case is replaced with someone else because they are unable to continue for some reason, such as death or transfer of interest.
  • Substitution of judgment: This is a standard used in administrative law when interpreting regulations. It means that the agency's interpretation is only valid if it concerns complex subject matter or fundamental policy.
  • Substitution in a will: This is when a second person is named as a legatee to receive a bequest if the original legatee is unable to receive it.
  • Substitution in a novation: This is when a new agreement or obligation replaces an old one.

These examples illustrate how substitution is used to replace one thing with another. In each case, the original person or thing is unable to continue for some reason, so a replacement is needed.
