Definition of alea
ALEA
ALEA is a Latin term used in Roman law. It has two meanings:
- A game of chance.
- The chance of gain or loss in a contract.
Examples of ALEA include:
- Playing a game of poker or roulette at a casino.
- Entering into a business contract where the outcome is uncertain and could result in either a profit or a loss.
These examples illustrate the two meanings of ALEA. In the first example, playing a game of chance is the primary focus, and the outcome is uncertain. In the second example, the focus is on the chance of gain or loss in a business contract, where the outcome is also uncertain.
