RESCIND Meaning and
Definition
-
Rescind is a verb that refers to the act of revoking, canceling, or withdrawing a law, rule, regulation, agreement, decision, or any other form of official action. It is an action typically taken by an individual, organization, or governing body to invalidate or nullify a previous decision or action.
When individuals or organizations rescind something, they essentially undo or invalidate its previous effects. This could involve the cancellation of a contract, annulling a marriage, or revoking a membership. Governments can also rescind laws or regulations, rendering them no longer in force.
The act of rescinding can be motivated by various factors, such as the realization of an error or oversight, changing circumstances, conflicting interests, or simply a desire to reverse a previous decision. It often involves a formal process or official announcement to ensure its legitimacy and proper implementation.
The term "rescind" is derived from the Latin word "rescindere," meaning to cut off or tear away. The concept behind rescinding is similar - the action aims to sever the legal or official ties associated with a previous decision or action.
In summary, rescind is a verb used to describe the act of invalidating, canceling, or revoking a law, rule, agreement, decision, or any other form of official action. It involves the reversal of previous effects and often requires a formal process or announcement to ensure proper implementation.

Etymology of RESCIND
The word "rescind" originated from the Latin term "rescindere". The Latin word is a combination of "re-" meaning "back" or "again", and "scindere", which means "to cut" or "to split". Therefore, "rescind" originally meant "to cut back" or "to split apart". Over time, its meaning evolved to refer to the act of revoking, annulling, or canceling a law, contract, decree, or similar formal agreements. The term entered the English language in the 16th century.
