Simple English definitions for legal terms

B.F.

Read a random definition: traveled place

A quick definition of B.F.:

B.F. is an abbreviation for bonum factum, which means "good deed" in Latin. BFOQ stands for bona fide occupational qualification, which means a requirement for a job that is necessary for the job to be done properly. BFP refers to a bona fide purchaser, which is someone who buys something in good faith and without knowing that it was obtained illegally. BHC stands for bank holding company, which is a company that owns one or more banks. BIA is an abbreviation for the Bureau of Indian Affairs, which is a government agency that works with Native American tribes. Bias means having a preference or prejudice towards something or someone. There are different types of bias, such as actual bias, which is when someone has a genuine prejudice, and implied bias, which is when someone's experiences or relationships make it seem like they might be prejudiced. Judicial bias is when a judge has a preference towards one party in a case, but this usually isn't enough to disqualify them from the case unless it's based on personal reasons.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: B.F. is an abbreviation for "bonum factum," which means a good deed or a good act.

Bias: Bias refers to a person's inclination, prejudice, or predilection towards a particular person or subject. For example, a juror's bias towards a defendant may prompt a challenge for cause.

Actual bias: Actual bias is a genuine prejudice that a judge, juror, witness, or other person has against a person or relevant subject.

Implied bias: Implied bias is a prejudice that is inferred from the experiences or relationships of a judge, juror, witness, or other person.

Judicial bias: Judicial bias refers to a judge's bias towards one or more parties in a case over which they preside. This bias is usually insufficient to justify disqualifying a judge from presiding over a case. To justify disqualification or recusal, the judge's bias usually must be personal or based on some extrajudicial reason.

Example: An example of bias could be a hiring manager who prefers to hire candidates from a certain race or gender, even if they are less qualified than other candidates. This bias could lead to discrimination and unfair hiring practices.

Explanation: The example illustrates how bias can lead to unfair treatment and discrimination. In this case, the hiring manager's bias towards a certain race or gender could prevent qualified candidates from being hired, which is not a good deed or a good act (bonum factum).

I think tik tok is evil and coming from a national defense background, working in PSYOP and in the intelligence community I can promise it is.

@BulbasaurNoLikeCardio: Yeah but like half the general officers are compromised so we might as well just give this country to China already. The head of the JAG corps used to tell us how much he loved Tiktok and he was a 1 star. These people should be court martialed. I hope Trump follows through on that promise the most.

@m10: 110% agree, china has a truly amazing HUMINT network and espionage skills that much of our military is infiltrated or committing willful negligence of duty in prevent and protection. @babycat: PSYOP is pretty small on the AD side but I left the community to go play with Apaches and drones in 2018/19
