W.P.

Read a random definition: due negotiation

A quick definition of W.P.:

Term: W.P.

Definition: W.P. stands for "Want of Prosecution." This means that a legal case has been dismissed because the person who filed the case did not continue to pursue it.

A more thorough explanation:

W.P.

W.P. is an abbreviation for "Want of Prosecution." This means that a legal case has been dismissed because the plaintiff or prosecutor failed to take action or pursue the case.

Example 1: A person files a lawsuit against their former employer for wrongful termination. However, they fail to show up to court or provide any evidence to support their claim. The case may be dismissed for W.P. because the plaintiff did not pursue the case.

Example 2: A prosecutor files charges against a defendant for a crime, but then fails to appear in court or provide evidence to support the charges. The case may be dismissed for W.P. because the prosecutor did not pursue the case.

These examples illustrate how a case can be dismissed for W.P. when the plaintiff or prosecutor fails to take action or pursue the case. It is important for both parties to actively participate in the legal process and provide evidence to support their claims or charges.
