Definition of estoppage
Definition: Estoppage (e-stop-ij) is the state or condition of being estopped.
Example: If a person makes a promise to another person and that person relies on that promise to their detriment, the person who made the promise may be estopped from going back on their word.
Explanation: Estoppage is a legal term that refers to a situation where someone is prevented from denying or asserting something because of their own previous actions or words. In the example given, the person who made the promise is estopped from going back on their word because the other person relied on that promise and would suffer harm if the promise was not kept. This is a common example of estoppage in contract law.
