summary of the argument

Read a random definition: demand of oyer

A quick definition of summary of the argument:

A summary of the argument is a brief section in a legal document, usually an appellate brief, where the lawyer summarizes the main points of their argument. It is usually one to four pages long and directs the court to the heart of the argument on each point. The summary should be clear and concise, condensing the argument made in the body of the brief. It is important to note that mere repetition of the headings under which the argument is arranged is not sufficient.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A summary of the argument is a part of a brief, usually an appellate brief, where the advocate summarizes the argument to a précis or synopsis, directing the court to the heart of the argument on each point. It is typically one to four pages long.

For example, if a lawyer is presenting a case to an appellate court, they will provide a summary of the argument in their brief. This summary will condense the argument to a few pages, highlighting the key points and directing the court to the most important parts of the argument.

The purpose of the summary of the argument is to make it easier for the court to understand the argument being presented. It allows the court to quickly grasp the main points of the argument without having to read through the entire brief.
