James A. Ballentine · 1916
A term applied to legal bars analagous to estoppel in pais, but differing therefrom. It includes the doctrine of “election,” the principle which precludes a party from asserting to another's disadvantage a right inconsistent with a position previously taken by him, and certain forms of waiver. See 32 R. I. 246, Ann. Cas. 1912D, 906.
