Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Arkansas
is there a legal definition or commonly accepted legal use of the term "poultry"?
1 Answer from Attorneys
It is nearly impossible to provide a "commonly accepted legal use" for any term. In the law, context is key. That said, 7 USCA s 182 (the section of the federal code governing packers and stockyards) defines "poultry" as "chickens, turkeys, ducks, geese, and other domestic fowl[.]"
Without additional information, I cannot say whether this definition applies to your specific use of the term poultry. Other statutes or private agreements may assign different definitions to the term and other factors, such as trade usage or historical usage between the parties, may alter the definition. I recommend you contact an attorney with additional information to determine the applicable meaning of your term.
