Inchoate

This is a legal term for something that has begun but it not yet completed. The most common use in legal terms is that of inchoate crime where some has taken steps to commit the crime but has not completed the crime; for example, this could include a situation where someone pays a housekeeper to steal the homeowner’s jewelry, but the theft never takes place. “Inchoate” as used in family law has much more boring applications.
