PROCEEDING Meaning and Definition

1. A "proceeding" is a noun that is typically used in the legal context to refer to a sequence of actions or events that occur in a court of law or other administrative or formal setting. It encompasses the entire range of activities that take place during the course of a trial, hearing, or any other formal dispute resolution process.

   In a legal sense, a proceeding can include several stages, such as the filing of a complaint or petition, pre-trial conferences, discovery of evidence, oral arguments, presentation of witnesses and evidence, cross-examinations, and closing arguments. It can also involve administrative or governmental actions, such as applications, hearings, or reviews.

   Moreover, a "proceeding" can extend beyond the confines of the courtroom, as it can also encompass any formal activities or steps taken to accomplish a particular objective. For example, in a corporate setting, a board meeting can be referred to as a proceeding, as it includes discussions, decisions, and actions taken by the board of directors.

   The term "proceeding" implies a structured, deliberate, and organized approach towards achieving a specific outcome or resolution. It involves adherence to established rules, guidelines, and protocols to ensure fairness, efficiency, and accountability throughout the process.

Etymology of PROCEEDING

The word "proceeding" is derived from the Old French term "proceder" which means "to go forward, advance". It can be further traced back to the Latin word "procedere" which combines "pro" (meaning forward) and "cedere" (meaning to go, yield). Therefore, "proceeding" carries the meaning of moving forward, advancing, or continuing something.
