Ex parte
Ex parte is a
Latin legal term meaning "from (by or for) one party" (
IPA pronunciation: or , although the proper Latin pronunciation is ). An ex parte decision is one decided by a
judge without requiring all of the parties to the controversy to be present. In
Australian,
Canadian,
U.K., and
U.S. legal doctrines, ex parte means a legal proceeding brought by one person in the absence of and without representation or notification of other parties. It is also used more loosely to refer to improper unilateral contacts with a court, arbitrator or represented party without notice to the other party or counsel for that party.
