Ex parte



         


Ex parte is a Latin legal term meaning "from (by or for) one party" (pronounced "ekss par-TAY" or "ekss par-TEE")

An ex parte decision is one decided by a judge without requiring the plaintiff to be present. In U.S., and U.K. legal doctrine it means: "Legal proceeding brought by one person in the absence of and without representation or notification of other parties."
