Legal Answers

Questions Answered by Timothy J. Stanley - Justia Legal Answers
  • Q: What is an amicus brief
    A: Amicus or amicus curiae is Latin for a 'friend of the court.' An amicus curiae is not a litigant, but a party interested in the outcome of the case. Amicus briefs are legal position statements that the interested party must first ask the court for, and receive, permission to file. The amici curiae (plural) seek to influence and persuade the court to take a particular position in the case.
  • Q: definition of DOES 1 - 100 inclusive
    A: Does , John Doe or Jane Doe are placeholder name used in legal actions for people whose true identity is unknown or must be withheld for legal reasons. Does 1-100 being used in a particular case probably means that there are up to 100 additional parties (fictitious defendants) to the legal action that are not yet known.
