The act of giving up a right .
2 .
It is a rule of law that any one may renounce a right which the law has established in his favor .
To this maxim there are many limitations .
A party may always renounce an acquired right ;
as ,
for example ,
to take lands by descent ;
but one cannot always give up a future right ,
before it has accrued ,
nor to the benefit conferred by law ,
although such advantage may be introduced only for the benefit of individuals .
3 .
For example ,
the power of making a will ;
the right of annulling a future contract ,
on the ground of fraud ;
and the right of pleading the act of limitations ,
cannot be renounced .
The first ,
because the party must be left free to make a will or not ;
and the latter two ,
because the right has not yet accrued .
4 .
This term is usually employed to signify the abdication or giving up of one '
s country at the time of choosing another .
The act of congress requires from a foreigner who applies to become naturalized a renunciation of all allegiance and fidelity to any foreign prince ,
potentate ,
state or sovereignty ,
whereof such alien may ,
at the time ,
be a citizen or subject .
See Citizen ;
Expatriation ;
Naturalization ;
To renounce .
