/raɪt ʌv rɪˈtɛnʃən/ – Phrase
Definition: quyền giữ lại, quyền khấu trừ.
A more thorough explanation: The legal English definition of the term “right of retention” refers to the legal right of a person to retain possession of another person’s property until a debt or obligation owed by the owner of the property is satisfied. This right allows the holder to keep the property as security until the debt is paid or the obligation is fulfilled.
Example: The landlord has the right of retention over the tenant’s security deposit until any damages to the property have been assessed and repaired.
