without prejudice

without prejudice
without prejudice
Without dismissing, damaging or otherwise affecting a legal interest or demand; without detriment to existing right or claim; relates to fact, not to opinion. This expression is used when a person, in the desire to avoid litigation or dispute without admitting that the other party has a claim, offers to do something he need not do, such as to compromise a claim of his own or to pay when he feels he is not liable.
