A quick definition of brev. sel.:

Term: BREV. SEL.

Definition: Brev. sel. is short for brevia selecta, which refers to selected short writs used in legal history. The word "brevia" comes from the Latin word for "short," and these writs were shorter than charters. There are different types of brevia, such as album breve (a blank writ) and apertum breve (an open, unsealed writ). Other examples include breve de bono et malo (a writ concerning good and evil) and breve de conventione (a writ of agreement).

A more thorough explanation:

Brev. sel. is an abbreviation for "brevia selecta," which refers to selected writs used in legal proceedings. The term "brevia" comes from the Latin word "brevis," meaning "short," and brevia were short writs used in legal cases.

  • Album breve: A blank writ with a blank or omission in it.
  • Apertum breve: An open, unsealed writ.
  • Breve de bono et malo: A writ used to inquire into a person's conduct to determine if they have committed a crime.
  • Breve de conventione: A writ used to enforce a contract.

These examples illustrate the different types of brevia that were used in legal proceedings. The album breve was a blank writ that could be filled in later, while the apertum breve was an open, unsealed writ. The breve de bono et malo was used to investigate criminal conduct, while the breve de conventione was used to enforce contracts.

Has the status checker just never worked for anybody else? I put in my LSAC username and password, but it always just says "Last checked: Never" no matter how much I refresh.

In asking for CAS waivers some schools say they give them but that you need to submit your application first without the CAS report and then send them some form for them to determine if they'll grant the waiver
9:08
How do you even submit the application without the CAS report? Do you just basically do the whole thing and then stop when you get to the part where you pay?
9:08
Or are they just lying
9:59
that kinda sounds like lying to me. Noooo you just have to pay and think we’ll think about it if we want to waive it
10:00
as far as i know you can't submit an application without paying the CAS report fee, and that fee can't be waived retroactively
10:05
I'm wondering if they can basically see that the application is complete but can't access any of the materials until that point
10:05
That's the only thing I can think of
10:06
they can see that you've started an application but i don't believe your progress is visible to them
10:07
i agree with bunny that they're lying. feels like a ploy to get you to submit and then to deny your waiver request under the pretense that you "didn't submit the materials correctly" or otherwise don't qualify for the waiver
