  "term": "Material",
  "field": "Law",
  "definition": "Relating to a fact, piece of evidence, or issue that is sufficiently relevant and consequential to influence the outcome of a legal matter.

For example, a material breach of contract is a violation so substantial that it defeats the agreement's purpose and discharges the non-breaching party from their duties.",
