How to use "Purport" in context?
Purport is a term meaning "to allege, to declare with intent to be believed" or "to assert as an excuse." It is often used in law and its use is often subject to misinterpretation. In law, purports to denote a statement or representation that is not fully and unequivocally true, but is made with the intention of establishing a legal right or obligation. A purport to act in good faith is an important defense to a charge of scheming.
