Deprive
|
|
DepriveReferring to property taken under the power of eminent domain, means the same as "take". While the Fourteenth Amendment ordains that no state shall "deprive any person of life, liberty, or property without due process of law", no definition of the word "deprive" is found in the Constitution.
RELATED TERMS--------------------------------------
Property
Property is commonly thought of as a thing which belongs to someone and over which a person has total control. But, legally, it is more properly defined as a collection of legal rights over a thing. These rights are usually total and fully enforceable by the state or the owner against others. It has been said that "property and law were born and die together. Before laws were made there was no property. Take away laws and property ceases." before laws were written and enforced, property had no relevance. Possession was all that mattered. There are many classifications of property, the most common being between real property or immoveable property (real estate such as land or buildings) and "chattel", or "moveable" (things which are not attached to the land such as a bicycle, a car or a hammer) and between public (property belonging to everybody or to the state) and private property.
Power
This is either inherent or derivative. The former is the right, ability, or faculty of doing something, without receiving that right, ability, or faculty from another. The people have the power to establish a form of govemment, or to change one already established. A father has the legal power to chastise his son; a master, his apprentice.
Domain
It signifies sometimes, dominion, territory governed - sometimes, possession, estate - and sometimes, land about the mansion house of a lord. By domain is also understood the right to dispose at our pleasure of what belongs to us.
State

In this sense, the state means the whole people united into one body politic; and the state, and the people of the state, are equivalent expressions. 2) Condition of persons. This word has various acceptations. If we inquire into its origin, it will be found to come from the Latin status, which is derived from the verb stare, sto, whence has been made statio, which signifies the place where a person is located, stat, to fulfil the obligations which are imposed upon him.
Person
This word is applied to men, women and children, who are called natural persons.
Life
The aggregate of the animal functions which resist death. Bichat.
Liberty

Definition
An enumeration of the particular acts included by or under a name: as, the definition of a crime.
Word
Construction. One or more syllables which when united convey an idea a single part of speech.
