INTRODUCTION: In English jurisprudence, a "person" refers to any entity capable of having legal rights and duties. This includes not only human beings but also corporations. For example, a company can sue or be sued in court, just like an individual. There may be human being who are not persons like slaves.

DEFINITION OF PERSON: • According to Salmond: “A person is any being whom the law regard as capable of right and duties.” • According to Prof. Gray’s: “A person is an entity to which rights and duties may be attributed.” • Section 11 of the Pakistan Penal Code (1860): “The word Person includes any company or Association, or body or person, whether incorporated or not.” 4. DERIVATION OF WORD PERSON: The word person is derived from Latin word “Persona”. 5. KINDS OF PERSONS: Persons are of two kinds. In English jurisprudence, the concepts of natural person and legal person are fundamental to understanding who or what can have rights, responsibilities, and legal standing. • Natural Person: A natural person refers to a human being who has individual rights and duties under the law. This is the most straightforward kind of legal entity, as it pertains to individual people. Example: Wajeeh Ahsan, an ordinary citizen, can own property, enter into contracts, and sue or be sued in a court of law. Wajeeh Ahsan is a natural person.
• Legal Person: A legal person, also known as a juridical person, is an entity that is not a human being but is given legal rights and responsibilities by the law. This can include organizations, corporations, governments, and other entities that can own property, enter contracts, and participate in legal proceedings. Example: ABC Corporation is a company that can own property, enter into contracts, and sue or be sued. Despite not being a human, ABC Corporation is considered a legal person under the law. 6.

Example: Any individual like John Smith or Emma Brown. • Artificial Persons: Artificial persons are entities created by law that have legal rights and responsibilities. These can be organizations, corporations, governments, etc. a. Corporations: Corporations are legal entities that are separate from their owners. They can own property, enter into contracts, and be sued. Example: Apple Inc., Google LLC, or a local grocery store registered as a corporation.
b. Charitable Organizations: Non-profit organizations created to support charitable activities and causes. Example: The British Red Cross, Oxfam, or a local animal shelter registered as a charity. c. Partnerships: Partnerships are businesses owned by two or more individuals who share responsibilities and profits. Example: A law firm or a medical practice operated by partners. d. Limited Liability Partnerships (LLPs): Similar to partnerships, but with limited liability for the partners. Example: A consultancy firm registered as an LLP. 7. LEGAL STATUES OF A DEAD PERSON: I.
