Adjunction

Attachment or affixing to another. Something attached as a dependent or auxiliary part.

Under the CIVIL LAW system which prevails in much of Europe and Latin America, adjunction is the permanent union of a thing belonging to one person to something that belongs to someone else.

A branch agency, for example, is an adjunct of the main department or ADMINISTRATIVE AGENCY.
