Resolution (legal)

In legal terms, a resolution is a formal decision or expression of opinion made by a legislative body, organization, or governing authority. It signifies an official stance or decision on a particular issue but does not typically have the same binding power as a law. Resolutions are used to approve policies, express collective intentions, or guide actions within organizations like legislatures, corporations, or community groups. They document decisions in a clear, official manner, serving as records of the group's consensus or position on specific matters.
