depecage
- A legal principle in conflict of laws where various parts of a case could be governed by the laws of different jurisdictions
- The concept of depecage allowed the court to apply different state laws to various aspects of the case.
- Depecage allows for the unique situation where a single case can be split and evaluated under several jurisdictions' legal rules.
- Because we used depecage, we had to understand and apply a range of laws from different locations for the different elements of the case.
