Definitions

  1. A conflict-of-laws doctrine sending a legal question back to another jurisdiction's law.

Word origin

From French renvoi.

Used in a sentence

  • As has been shown, the renvoi, if logically carried out, involves a perpetual deadlock. But both England and America try the validity of a will of personalty by the law of the testator's last domicil.
  • However, it could be alternatively argued that there is a general principle at common law that renvoi does not apply in relation to what are termed “obligations” for the purposes of private international law.
  • The description would be inexact because it gives figure to an essential play of return (renvoi).
