Which of the following best describes the legal phrase amicus curiae?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer D
Amicus curiae means friend of the court. An amicus assists the court by offering relevant legal submissions or information, rather than being a party asserting a claim in the case. 'Let the buyer beware' is caveat emptor, while 'by what authority' relates to quo warranto.
