adv. (in pah-ree dee-lick-toe) Latin for "in equal fault," which means that two
(or more) people are all at fault or are all guilty of a crime. In contract law,
if the fault is more or less equal then neither party can claim breach of the contract
by the other; in an accident, neither can collect damages, unless the fault is more
on one than the other under the rule of "comparative negligence"; in defense of
a criminal charge, one defendant will have a difficult time blaming the other for
inducing him or her into the criminal acts if the proof is that both were involved.
