<h1>Understanding 'Joint and Several': Multiple Parties Share Legal Responsibility, Each Can Be Held Fully Accountable.</h1> The term 'Joint and Several' refers to a legal obligation where two or more parties are individually and collectively responsible for a liability. This means each party can be held accountable separately or all parties together, depending on the creditor's choice. This concept is applicable in various legal contexts, including statutory and contractual obligations. Definitions from Jowitt's Dictionary of English Law, Black's Law Dictionary, and Advanced Law Lexicon illustrate its application, emphasizing the flexibility in assigning responsibility among multiple parties.
