Simple English definitions for legal terms

whereupon

Read a random definition: antecessor

A quick definition of whereupon:

Term: WHEREUPON

Definition: Whereupon means "after which" or "as a result of which." For example, if someone is found not guilty in court, whereupon a riot breaks out, it means that the riot happened soon after the verdict was announced. It can also mean "on which" or "based on which," as in the precedent whereupon the defense bases its argument.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Whereupon is a conjunction that means "soon after and as a result of which; and then." It can also mean "whereon."

Example 1: The lawyer presented his evidence, whereupon the judge made her ruling.

Example 2: The students finished their exams, whereupon they celebrated by going out to eat.

The examples illustrate how "whereupon" is used to show a cause-and-effect relationship between two events. In the first example, the judge's ruling was a result of the lawyer's evidence. In the second example, the celebration was a result of finishing the exams.
