A more thorough explanation: In legal terms, “concurrent” refers to events or circumstances that happen at the same time or overlap in time. It can also refer to the jurisdiction of two or more courts to hear and decide a case simultaneously.
Example: The judge imposed a concurrent sentence of five years for each of the two charges, meaning the defendant will serve a total of five years in prison.
