<div>A natural person (human, often of age of majority) is a subset of legal person. A natural person is always a legal person, a legal person is not always a natural person.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia<br>

<br>
In jurisprudence, a natural person is a real human being, as opposed to <br>
a legal person, which may be a private (i.e., business entity or <br>
non-governmental organization) or public (i.e., government) organization.<br>
<br>
In many cases, fundamental human rights are implicitly granted only to <br>
natural persons. For example, the Nineteenth Amendment to the United <br>
States Constitution, which states a person cannot be denied the right to <br>
vote based on gender, or Section Fifteen of the Canadian Charter of <br>
Rights and Freedoms, which guarantees equality rights, apply to natural <br>
persons only. Another example of the distinction between natural and <br>
legal persons is that a natural person can hold public office, but a <br>
corporation cannot.<br>
<br>
A corporation or non-governmental organization can, however, file a <br>
lawsuit or own property as a legal person.<br>
<br>
"<br>
<br>
PS: Incidentally, if your use of the term is correct in your <br>
jurisdiction, then what does the adding the word "legal" add to <br>
understanding? Surely the correct term is simply "person".<br>
