concurrences

Happening at once

Concurrences are instances of agreement, coincidence, or happening at the same time.

In legal contexts, a concurrence is a separate opinion written by a judge who agrees with the court's decision but for different reasons: Justice Thomas wrote a concurrence questioning the precedent.

More generally, concurrences are points where things align: a concurrence of favorable circumstances.
