A quick definition of tender, plea of:

A plea of tender is a legal argument that a defendant can make in court. It means that the defendant has always been willing to pay the debt that the plaintiff is asking for, has offered to pay it, and has brought the money to court to pay the plaintiff. This is a way for the defendant to show that they are not at fault for not paying the debt, and that they have done everything they can to resolve the issue.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A plea of tender is a legal argument that the defendant has been willing to pay the debt demanded by the plaintiff, has offered it to the plaintiff, and has brought the money into court ready to pay the plaintiff.

For example, if a person owes money to another person and is sued for the debt, they may use a plea of tender to argue that they have always been willing to pay the debt and have the money ready to do so. This plea can be used as a defense against the lawsuit.

The plea of tender is a way for the defendant to show that they have made a good faith effort to pay the debt and that the plaintiff is not entitled to any further damages or interest. It is a common law pleading that is still used in some jurisdictions today.
