A quick definition of appearance term:

An appearance term is a specific time when someone has to show up in court. It's usually the first time after they've been told they have to go. There are different types of terms, like civil and criminal terms, and they can be regular or special. In the past, there were also terms that were specific times of the year when courts were in session. A term fee is a charge that a lawyer can ask for, and it's based on how many terms there are in a case.

A more thorough explanation:

An appearance term is a legal term that refers to the regular judicial term in which a party is required to appear, usually the first one after legal service has been made. It is one of the many types of terms used in law.

For example, if a person is served with a lawsuit, the appearance term would be the first court date that they are required to attend. This is when they would need to appear before the judge and respond to the lawsuit.

Appearance term is just one of many legal terms that are used in the court system. Other types of terms include fundamental term, implied term, material term, and nonfundamental term.

No, at least from the two people I know there that’s false. I think it’s just something like Chicago for conservatives is on par with S whereas for liberals it’s below HYS but above CCNP

It's more just not a good # for people who aren't willing to clerk conservative. I'm sure they place liberal clerks at an above average rate for a t-6 though. Maybe higher (not entirely sure)
