Black's Law Dictionary

Henry Campbell Black, M.A. · 1910

A party is said to be under terms when an indulgence is granted to him by the court in its discretion, on certain conditions. Thus, when an injunction is granted ex parte, the party obtaining it is put under terms to abide by such order as to damages as the court may make at the hearing. Mozley & Whitley.
