Questions on "person" and legalise.
I've noticed in ORC, here is definition of "whoever" and "another" in general definitions for the code:
<TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 border=0>
<TBODY>
<TR>
<TD>
<FONT face="Times New Roman" color=#000000 size=3>(A) "Whoever" includes all persons, natural and artificial; partners; principals, agents, and employees; and all officials, public or private.</FONT></TD>
<TD></TD></TR>
<TR>
<TD colSpan=3>
<FONT face="Times New Roman" color=#000000 size=3>(B) "Another," when used to designate the owner of property which is the subject of an offense, includes not only natural persons but also every other owner of property.</FONT></TD></TR>
<TR>
<TD colSpan=3 height=1>
&
Person is defined as:</TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>
<TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 border=0>
<TBODY>
<TR>
<TD rowSpan=5></TD>
<TD colSpan=3 height=1>
<TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 border=0>
<TBODY>
<TR>
<TD>
<FONT face="Times New Roman" color=#000000 size=3>(C) "Person" includes an individual, corporation, business trust, estate, trust, partnership, and association.</FONT>
<FONT face="Times New Roman">under administrative procedures person is defined as:
<FONT face="Times New Roman" color=#000000 size=3>(F) "Person" means a person, firm, corporation, association, or partnership.</FONT>
Here is definition of "disabled condition" and "disabled person":
<TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 border=0>
<TBODY>
<TR>
<TD>
<FONT face="Times New Roman" color=#000000 size=3>(A) "Disabled condition" means the condition of being unconscious, semiconscious, incoherent, or otherwise incapacitated to communicate.</FONT>
<FONT face="Times New Roman" color=#000000 size=3>(B) "Disabled person" means a person in a disabled condition.</FONT>
Question on this: does a legal fiction have "consciousness"? can a legal fiction "communicate"? are legal fictions "disabled"? or in a "disabled condition"?
"person" under civil long arm statutes is defined as:
<TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 border=0>
<TBODY>
<TR>
<TD>
<FONT face="Times New Roman" color=#000000 size=3>"person" includes an individual, his executor, administrator, or other personal representative, or a corporation, partnership, association, or any other legal or commercial entity, who is a nonresident of this state.</FONT>
Here is a definition of "obligor" under the long arm statute of UIFSA in Ohio:
<TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 border=0>
<TBODY>
<TR>
<TD>
<FONT face="Times New Roman" color=#000000 size=3>(M) "Obligor" means an individual, or the estate of a decedent to which any of the following applies:</FONT>
<FONT face="Times New Roman" color=#000000 size=3>(1) The individual or estate owes or is alleged to owe a duty of support;</FONT>
<FONT face="Times New Roman" color=#000000 size=3>(2) The individual is alleged but has not been adjudicated to be a parent of a child;</FONT>
<FONT face="Times New Roman" color=#000000 size=3>(3) The individual or estate is liable under a support order.</FONT>
I can't find the definition of "individual" anywhere though, or "natural."
Any thoughts, ideas,&or comments would be appreciated.
Best wishes,
