A quick definition of avowant:

Term: AVOWANT

Definition: An avowant is someone who claims ownership of something that has been taken from them and is involved in a legal action to get it back.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: An avowant is a person who claims ownership of property that has been taken and is being held by someone else. This person makes a legal declaration, called an avowry, in an action of replevin.

For example, if someone's car is taken by a towing company and they believe it was done illegally, they can file a lawsuit for replevin. In this case, the person filing the lawsuit would be the avowant, as they are claiming ownership of the car and seeking to have it returned to them.

Another example could be a landlord who believes that a tenant has taken property that belongs to them. The landlord could file a lawsuit for replevin and be the avowant in the case.

These examples illustrate how an avowant is someone who is making a legal claim of ownership over property that is being held by someone else. They are seeking to have the property returned to them through the legal process of replevin.

im distracting myself by schizo-scrolling r/lawschoolamissions and every conceivable data point on this godforsaken website
it is not working
Haaa I naturally want to do that too. I’m trying to stop. They need a surgeon general’s warning on this site for perspective law students
i spend more time on here then anything else trying to rationalize that the waves from last year will match waves for this year (they won't) and that the stats of people with the same stats are indicative of my own (they aren't)
There aren't many people in my stat range so I pretty much know every result in my range after being on here for a few years
