Is a retraction statement the same as a withdrawal?

In: Legal Definitions [Edit categories]

Answer:

No. A 'retraction' indicates that something was taken back (i.e.: "I didn't mean to say that, may I retract it?") As opposed to a 'withdrawal' (i.e.: "I wish to withdraw my objection to the motion," - or - "I wish to withdraw from this case as counsel.")
