Defendant


Defendant meaning

In a criminal case, the person accused of the crime is called the "defendant." In civil cases, the person or group that is being sued by the plaintiff is called the defendant. In some types of lawsuits, the person who is being sued is called the respondent. But respondent is usually used to talk about the person who answers an appeal.

Law Books

Law Tutor's books are a complete set of law notes that meet the needs of the SQE assessment specification, the CILEX qualification framework, and the LLB programme at the University of London. They were written by a former law lecturer and barrister. But the law books are helpful for people taking law classes at any university or taking the LLB, SQE, CILEX, PGDL, GDL, or UOL law exams.
