  • Negligence  Failure to act in a way that a reasonable and prudent person would under similar circumstances.  
  • No-fault Divorce  Arizona is a no-fault divorce state, meaning parties can get a divorce regardless of the cause and without fault assigned to either party.   
  • Nolo Contendere  A term meaning “no contest.” In a criminal case, it has the same effect as pleading guilty, but is not considered an admission of guilt, rather the defendant does not wish to contest the charges.
