Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Solicitation typically refers to the act of seeking or trying to obtain something, often in the context of illegal activities such as prostitution or bribery. A private game of poker, while it may be illegal due to gambling laws depending on the jurisdiction, does not constitute solicitation in the legal sense of the term.
