Constitutional Law

ABC Blocks

A written agreement in which the defendant in a lawsuit admits liability and accepts the amount of agreed-upon damages he/she must pay to plaintiff (person suing him/her), and agrees that the statement may be filed as a court judgment against him/her if he/she does not pay or perform as agreed. this avoids further legal proceedings and may prevent a legal judgment being entered (filed) if the terms are fulfilled by the defendant.
