waives
Lets a right go
Waives is the third-person singular form of waive, meaning to voluntarily give up a right, claim, or privilege.
When someone waives something, they choose not to enforce or insist upon it: The bank waives the fee for customers with direct deposit.
Courts may allow parties to waive certain procedural requirements.
The word often appears in legal and formal contexts, where rights are explicitly relinquished rather than simply ignored.
