Definition: phán quyết có lợi cho nguyên đơn khi bị đơn không đưa ra lời phản bác.
A more thorough explanation: “Judgment for want of plea” is a legal term that refers to a court decision entered in favor of the plaintiff when the defendant fails to file a responsive pleading, such as an answer or a motion to dismiss, within the specified time period. This judgment is typically entered by the court after the plaintiff has filed a complaint and the defendant has failed to respond within the required timeframe, resulting in a default judgment in favor of the plaintiff.
Example: In the case of Smith v. Jones, the court entered a judgment for want of plea against the defendant for failing to respond to the plaintiff’s complaint within the required time frame.
