Like it or not, legal terms are everywhere, demanding our attention. When you rent an apartment, are you the lessor or the lessee? When you read a newspaper article about a politician embroiled in scandal, what does it mean that a grand jury has been convened? if a state trooper pulls you over, and the speeding ticket says you must post bail, what is it talking about?
