ARTICLE SENIORITY Clause Samples
The ARTICLE SENIORITY clause establishes the order of precedence among various articles or provisions within a contract or agreement. In practice, this means that if there is a conflict or inconsistency between different articles, the one designated as having higher seniority will prevail.
