Etymology
1. c.1374, "that to which one has recourse for aid or assistance," from O.Fr. resort "resource, help," back-formation from resortir "to resort," lit. "to go out again," from re- "again" + sortir "go out" (see sortie). Meaning "place people go for recreation" is first recorded 1754. The verb is recorded from c.1460. Phrase in the last resort (1672) translates Fr. en dernier ressort, originally of legal appeals.
2. From Middle English resorten, from Old French resortir (“to fall back, return, resort, have recourse, appeal”), back-formation from sortir (“to go out”).
