Legal Proofreading Class—Defined Terms
Defined terms are terms that are given specific definitions and that refer to a particular person, place, or thing within a document. Once that person, place, or thing has been defined, the defined term will be used throughout the remainder of the document.
For example, if Mr. Smith buys Mr. Montgomery's hotel, Mr. Smith (the "Purchaser") will be referred to throughout the document as the Purchaser, while Mr. Montgomery (the "Seller") will be known as the Seller. The hotel (the "Property") will be referred to as the Property.
Terms are most frequently defined by placing the defined term in quotes and parenthesis, as you see above. Once a term is defined (and it is defined only once) the term will appear capitalized (initial cap, in this case) throughout the document. There are several ways to define terms and once you have completed our legal proofreading class you will be familiar with all of them and will confidently address defined terms on any legal proofreading test you take.Defined terms can be tricky elements on legal proofreading tests. Once you have completed our legal proofreading class you will know even more than you need to know about defined terms to pass legal proofreading tests!
