The act of designing or planning something in advance; a predetermined arrangement or intention.
From 'foredesign' + '-ment' (noun suffix). The '-ment' suffix turns the verb into an abstract noun representing the action itself.
Legal documents often invoke 'foredesignment' to prove premeditation—showing that a crime was the result of careful planning rather than impulse can actually make sentences harsher.
