claim and delivery

Read a random definition: Prejudice

A quick definition of claim and delivery:

Claim and delivery: This is a legal process to get back something that belongs to you but has been taken or kept by someone else without your permission. It is also a way to ask for compensation for any damage caused by the person who took or kept your property. This process comes from an old law called replevin.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Claim and delivery is a legal action taken to recover specific personal property that has been wrongfully taken or detained. This claim also includes any damages caused by the taking or detention. It is based on the common-law action of replevin.

Example: If someone steals your laptop, you can file a claim and delivery action to recover your laptop and any damages caused by the theft. The court will order the return of the laptop to you and may also award damages for any harm caused by the theft.

Explanation: Claim and delivery is a legal remedy that allows individuals to recover their property that has been wrongfully taken or detained. The example illustrates how a person can use this legal action to recover their stolen laptop and seek compensation for any harm caused by the theft.

I have not had a date change either for Mich but I've seen people get in without one so who knows
I applied 9/25 to like 6 schools and some (Houston) have no date change yet so dw

But do people get in without addresses going long?
WorthlessAttractiveZombie

it's tough to tell because a lot of people type out their addresses long to begin with
soapy

Mich overrated (Dean Z please let me in even tho i didnt apply and I am below both 25ths)

The "date changes" at Michigan really don't mean anything. We had to do them in undergrad admissions whenever a Georgia applicant picked the country instead of the state, because we'd have to remove the TOEFL requirement and reassign the application from the international application readers.

Classy, does that mean they may look at your application, and that look doesn't necessarily trigger any date change?

@soapy: I don't know for sure about the law school. For undergrad, once the application is complete, it's assigned to a reader the following Monday. If we had to make any changes, it's because a reader saw something that needed to be changed and the application needed to be re-read after that change.

Ahh, got it. Thank you for the insight!

You're welcome. FWIW, I have no idea what's up with the address changes. We didn't have to do any of that, except for the Georgia state vs country kinds of things.

I've heard it theorized that some schools will change the address from "St." --> "Street" as they prepare to send out admissions packets. That's the rumor, anyways.
