Read a random definition: content-based restriction

A quick definition of clear error:

Clear Error: This term refers to a mistake that has been made and needs to be corrected. It is similar to the word "error." The Clearfield Trust doctrine is a rule that says federal courts can make their own laws when there is a strong reason to do so and it is important for the whole country to follow the same rule. This rule was made in a court case called Clearfield Trust Co. v. United States in 1943. Another rule called the Erie Doctrine is different from the Clearfield Trust doctrine.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Clear error refers to a mistake made by a court or other legal authority that is obvious and can be easily corrected. It is a type of error that is clear and unambiguous, and does not require further investigation or analysis.

For example, if a judge accidentally enters the wrong date on a court order, that would be considered a clear error. Similarly, if a government agency mistakenly calculates someone's taxes and it is obvious that the calculation is incorrect, that would also be a clear error.

The concept of clear error is important in legal proceedings because it allows mistakes to be corrected quickly and efficiently, without the need for lengthy appeals or further litigation. By identifying and correcting clear errors, the legal system can ensure that justice is served in a timely and fair manner.

It is shitty that was a pattern of behavior but I am glad someone is finally standing up for themselves. Like I can be a pretty rigid butthole guy when it comes to getting stuff but a complete lack of empathy or situational awareness shown by the school and their staff is mind blowing. When I was talking about it in the office they all thought I was lying cause it sounds so crazy.
