claim check

A quick definition of claim check:

A claim check is a small piece of paper that you get when you leave something with someone to take care of, like when you check your coat at a restaurant or leave your bike with a valet. It's like a receipt that you keep until you come back to get your things. When you return, you give the claim check back to the person in charge, and they give you your stuff back.

A more thorough explanation:

A claim check is a receipt that you get when you leave your property with someone to take care of it. You give the claim check to the person when you come back to get your property.

For example, when you go to a coat check at a restaurant or a theater, you give your coat to the attendant and they give you a claim check. When you're ready to leave, you give the claim check back to the attendant and they give you your coat.

Another example is when you leave your car with a valet. They give you a claim check with a number on it. When you're ready to leave, you give the claim check back to the valet and they bring your car to you.

These examples illustrate the definition of a claim check because in both cases, you give your property to someone else to take care of it and they give you a claim check. When you're ready to get your property back, you give the claim check back to the person and they give you your property.

I only read headlines and skimmed a random article of it since I am the only one at work this week. Seems like he is Republican Hunter Biden but not at the paying rent with poop paintings stage

Sent in my transcript at 6 am today and it’s processing. Think it will be processed before lsac closes tmrw?

I would say it is a toss up, for how much LSAC charges us for everything they are extremely efficient in processing and sending stuff out BUT with a 30% uptake in applicants and the holidays it may be significantly slower unless it is ran through and processed by a computer program. Even if it takes them longer to process it, not like there is anyone at a school to request and review it after LSAC does their thing

Wow... Luigi Mangione just pled Not Guilty. He has to be banking on a jury nullification play, right? Honestly voir dire will be the most impactful part of the trial by far, I can't imagine the defense can present any credible exculpatory evidence.

I think he just wants it to go to trial

they're charging him with terrorism, was he ever going to get a plea deal that was even remotely worth taking?

Dude wants to be famous and seen as a martyr this is his chance

i think they want to roll the dice
I can understand that, but that's exactly why I would offer him a halfway decent plea deal as the DA. Maybe offer 25 years at medium security, as opposed to being guaranteed to die at ADX Florence.
