* "Leave" (n): "This word means permission to do something. In legal English it is used when the court permits a party to appeal a judgment or allows an application to be made to appeal." (UK Law Dictionary and Legal Letter Writing Exercise Book: All essential UK at 212) | |||
* "Endorsement" (ONCA decisions): prior to May 8, 2017 used it for shorter decisions that do not require extensive analysis of the facts or law. Going forward, "[t]he term “Endorsement” is only used to describe decisions that are written on the back of the appeal book or motion record, or for costs decisions." | |||
