Simple English definitions for legal terms

overreaching

Read a random definition: quae non recipiunt functionem

A quick definition of overreaching:

Overreaching is when someone takes advantage of another person in a dishonest way. This can happen in business deals where one person tricks another person into agreeing to something that is not fair. It can also happen when someone tries to do too much and ends up making things worse for themselves.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Overreaching is when someone takes unfair advantage of another person, often through fraudulent means. It can also refer to when someone goes too far and ends up defeating their own purpose.

Example 1: A salesman convinces an elderly woman to buy a product she doesn't need by lying about its benefits. This is an example of overreaching through fraudulent means.

Example 2: A politician promises to lower taxes to gain votes, but ends up raising taxes instead. This is an example of overreaching by going too far and defeating their own purpose.

These examples illustrate how overreaching can occur in different contexts, but ultimately involves taking advantage of someone or going beyond what is reasonable or achievable.
