of <h1>Ejusdem generis rule limits general words in statutes to same class as specific items listed before them</h1> The ejusdem generis rule is a legal principle of statutory interpretation meaning 'of the same kind or nature.' When general words follow a list of specific items in legislation, the general words are interpreted to include only items of the same class as those specifically listed. The rule applies when a statute contains specific enumerated words forming a class, the enumeration is not exhaustive, general terms follow the specific words, and there is no contrary legislative intent. This principle reconciles incompatibility between specific and general terms by restricting the meaning of general words through implication based on the context of the restricted words that precede them.
