@baddestbunny: I did not see that comment. Sorry about that. I listen to war and peace whenever I want to fall asleep. I used to listen to more audiobooks for school. I really don't anymore but most of my political theory was learned via audiobooks. Like the basics. Schmitt, Locke, Mills, Thoreau, Aristotle, Plato, etc.

A quick definition of assigned error:
Assigned error is when someone believes that something is true or false, but it doesn't match reality. This can happen in a court case when someone thinks a contract is for one thing, but it's actually for something else. There are different types of assigned errors, like clerical errors which are small mistakes in writing or copying something down. Harmless errors don't affect the outcome of a case, but fatal errors can be reversed. Sometimes, a party can't complain about an error because they encouraged it to happen. A manifest constitutional error is a mistake that affects someone's rights and can be reviewed by a higher court.A more thorough explanation:
Definition: Assigned error is an alleged mistake that occurred in a lower court and is pointed out in an appellate brief as grounds for reversal.
For example, if a party believes that the lower court made an error in interpreting the law or in applying the facts of the case, they can point out this assigned error in their appeal. This error must have had a significant impact on the outcome of the case for the appellate court to consider reversing the decision.
Another example of assigned error is when a party believes that the lower court made a mistake in admitting or excluding evidence that affected the outcome of the case. They can point out this error in their appeal and ask the appellate court to reverse the decision.
Overall, assigned error is a way for parties to challenge the decisions made by lower courts and seek a different outcome in their case.
