DELEGATION
12
Definition
Pronunciation: //dɛlɪˈɡeɪʃən//
noun
- (computing) A method-dispatching technique describing the lookup and inheritance rules for self-referential calls.
- (law) The act whereby or constellation in which the performance of an obligation (owed to an obligee, presuming its validity; irrespective of the obligation as the target of the delegation, rarely called delegatary) is assigned by its debtor (delegator, obligor) to and towards another party (delegatee, delegate)"The mere delegation of a performance imposes no duty on the delegate to perform. If the delegate performs the duty, the duty is discharged. If the delegate does not perform the duty, the duty is not discharged, but any claim of the obligee for breach is against the delegating party and not against the delegate."
