PRIVY

a person connected with another or having mutual interest with him or her in the same action or thing, by contract or otherwise
"Privity exists where the nonparty's interests were represented adequately by the party in the original suit. Privity also exists where a party to the original suit is "so closely aligned to a nonparty's interest as to be his virtual representative." United Merchants Mfrs. v. Sanders, 508 So.2d 689, 692 (Ala. 1987)."
A person who was not a named party to an action will nonetheless be subject to collateral estoppel arising from that action if that person was in privity with a party or virtually represented by a party.
For one to be in privity with one who is a party to a lawsuit or for one to have been virtually represented by one who is a party to a lawsuit, one must have an interest in the action such that she will be bound by the final judgment as if she were a party.
Stogniew, 656 So.2d at 920. "The concept of `privity' refers to a cluster of relationships . . . under which the preclusive effects of a judgment extend beyond a party to the original action and apply to persons having specified relationships to that party. . . ." Restatement (Second) of Judgments: ch. 1, Scope. "One party may be said to be a privy of another whenever there is a mutual or successive relationship to the same right." Osburn v. Stickel, 187 So.2d 89, 91-92 (Fla. 3d DCA 1966); see also EEOC v. Pemco Aeroplex, Inc., 383 F.3d 1280, 1286 (11th Cir. 2004) ("`Privity' is a flexible legal term, comprising several different types of relationships and generally applying when a person, although not a party, has his interests adequately represented by someone with the same interests who is a party."). The existence of a virtual representation relationship is based on "closely aligned" interests of a party and a person who is not a formal party. Stogniew, 656 So.2d at 920 (quoting Aerojet-Gen. Corp. v. Askew, 511 F.2d 710, 719 (5th Cir. 1975)); see also Pemco, 383 F.3d at 1287 (setting forth "four factors [used] in determining whether there is virtual representation: whether there was `participation in the first litigation, apparent consent to be bound, apparent tactical maneuvering, [and] close relationships between the parties and nonparties'") (citation omitted).
Congratulations! You're now booked up on what Privy means!

You'll probably need to reference a legal glossary during your pursuit of justice.

For instance, you may need the technical definition of a word in order to protect yourself from organizations/judges/lawyers who break the law (see this example of a Florida judge who outright committed perjury).

Nevertheless – and as always – please get the justice you deserve.

Sincerely,
