A quick definition of commissio rebellionis:

Term: Commissio Rebellionis

Definition: Commissio Rebellionis, also known as Commission of Rebellion or Writ of Rebellion, was a legal process that allowed a person to arrest and bring a defendant to court if they failed to obey a court order or decree. It was abolished in 1841. Basically, if someone didn't show up to court when they were supposed to, this process allowed someone else to go and get them and bring them to court.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Commissio rebellionis, also known as commission of rebellion, was an attaching process that allowed a layperson to arrest and bring a defendant to Chancery to enforce obedience to a writ of subpoena or decree. It was used when a person failed to appear in court after being ordered to do so, and was considered a rebellious act.

Example: If a person was ordered by the court to appear before it on a certain day, and failed to do so, a commission of rebellion could be issued against them. This commission would command certain persons to apprehend the person and bring them to court, as they were considered a rebel and contemner of the king's laws.

Explanation: The example illustrates how a commission of rebellion was used to enforce obedience to court orders and maintain the authority of the king's laws. It empowered laypersons to act as agents of the court and bring defendants to justice, even if they were not law enforcement officials. This helped to ensure that court orders were taken seriously and that those who disobeyed them were held accountable.

My berkeley paragraph finally disappeared. I definitely think it is just an indicator that they are actively reviewing files, and does not mean anything about A, WL, or Rs

UMN under review! As predicted, decisions are gonna come out early December
Minus those random R decisions from UMN yesterday though right? I wonder what happened there. I don’t think I’ve seen a school start the season out with anything but As on here
almost all of my apps have been UR for 6 weeks at this point I feel exhausted waiting for them to finish
Irvine is being snobby and wont start any review until end of Nov.
Yeah, it’s tough. I’m distracting myself by playing good video games after work :)
im distracting myself by schizo-scrolling r/lawschoolamissions and every conceivable data point on this godforsaken website
it is not working
Haaa I naturally want to do that too. I’m trying to stop. They need a surgeon general’s warning on this site for perspective law students
i spend more time on here then anything else trying to rationalize that the waves from last year will match waves for this year (they won't) and that the stats of people with the same stats are indicative of my own (they aren't)
There aren't many people in my stat range so I pretty much know every result in my range after being on here for a few years
