Re: September: Summer or Fall? I'd say it's more fall. Simply because if you're in the northeast of the US by the end of September the weather is already beginning to change.

Diligence Law and Legal Definition. Diligence means earnest and persistent application to accomplish something. It also refers to the degree of care from a person required in a given situation. In the context of patents, diligence means the speed and perseverance in perfecting an invention. It is one factor to be considered while deciding which of two or more independent inventors will be granted a patent.
Doing Your Due diligence Due diligence has been used since at least the mid-fifteenth century in the literal sense ârequisite effort.â Centuries later, the phrase developed a legal meaning, namely, âthe care that a reasonable person takes to avoid harm to other persons or their propertyâ; in this sense, it is synonymous with another legal term, ordinary care.
