Ademptio: Ademptio is a Latin term used in Roman law that means ademption.

Ademptiones is the plural form of ademptio.

A more thorough explanation:

Ademptio

Ademptio is a legal term from ancient Rome that means "ademption." It refers to the cancellation of a bequest or legacy under certain circumstances. For example, if the item that was bequeathed no longer exists or if the testator no longer owns the item, the bequest is cancelled. The term ademptione means "by ademption."

Suppose a person writes a will and leaves their car to their nephew. However, before the person dies, they sell the car. In this case, the bequest of the car is cancelled by ademption because the car no longer exists.

Another example is if a person leaves their house to their daughter, but then they sell the house and move into an apartment. The bequest of the house is cancelled by ademption because the testator no longer owns the house.

I told my family I won’t get any decisions until 2025 so they wouldn’t bombard me hahah
no i think there should be a Law School combine with all new drills except there is still the 40 yard dash
and a sub 4.5 gets you into any t14
LSAT can be one of the drills
letsseehowitgoesnow

so washu only called one person
So all the D1 athletes will get into a T-14. What else is new?
@TheAdoptedOne: that is called "Dean Poker Night" lol
@ClockworkBlue: I feel like most people could train for the 40 for the same amount of time as they do the LSAT and get close to sub 5 which would be equivalent to a 167+
