- Endorsement test
The endorsement test proposed by United States Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O Connor in the 1984 case of Lynch v. Donnelly asks whether a particular government action amounts to an endorsement of religion, thus violating the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment . According to the test, a government action is invalid if it creates a perception in the mind of a reasonable observer that the government is either endorsing or disapproving of religion. O Connor wrote blockquote The Establishment Clause prohibits government from making adherence to a religion relevant in any way to a person s standing in the political community. Government can run afoul of that prohibition... by endorsement or disapproval of religion. Endorsement sends a message to nonadherents that they are outsiders, not full members of the political community, and an accompanying message to adherents that they are insiders, favored members of the political community. The proper inquiry under the purpose prong of Lemon, I submit, is whether the government intends to convey a message of endorsement or disapproval of religion. O Connor s endorsement test has, on occasion, been subsumed into the Lemon test . The endorsement test is often invoked in situations where the government is engaged in expressive activities, such as graduation prayers, religious signs on government property, or religion in the curriculum. Pennsylvania Judge John E. Jones III cited the endorsement test in his 2005 decision in Kitzmiller v. Dover Area School District .

- Allonge
Allonge from French allonger , to draw out , a slip of paper affixed to a negotiable instrument , as a bill of exchange, for the purpose of receiving additional endorsement s for which there may not be sufficient space on the bill itself. An endorsement written on the allonge is deemed to be written on the bill itself. An allonge is more usually met with in those countries where the Code Napoleon is in force, as the code requires every endorsement to express the consideration . Under English law, as the simple signature of the endorser on the bill, without additional words, is sufficient to operate as a negotiation, an allonge is seldom necessary. In fencing , an allonge is a thrust or pass at the enemy. An allonge can also refer to a long drawn out espresso shot, also known as an Italian lungo .
