A quick definition of contra non producta:

Term: CONTRA NON PRODUCTA

Definition: CONTRA NON PRODUCTA is a legal term used in Scots law. It refers to a court order that declares a disputed document or deed as invalid. This order is issued in a reduction action when the document in question has not been produced or proven to be authentic.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Contra non producta is a Latin term used in Scots law. It means "against things not produced". It is a decree that declares a challenged deed as void in a reduction action.

Example: If someone challenges a will, the court may issue a contra non producta decree if the person who made the will did not produce evidence to prove that they were of sound mind when they made the will.

This means that if the person who made the will cannot provide evidence that they were of sound mind, the will can be declared void by the court.

Another example could be in a property dispute. If someone claims ownership of a property, but cannot produce evidence to prove their ownership, the court may issue a contra non producta decree, which would declare their claim as void.

Overall, contra non producta is a legal term used in Scots law to declare a challenged deed as void if the person who made the deed cannot produce evidence to support their claim.

No, at least from the two people I know there that’s false. I think it’s just something like Chicago for conservatives is on par with S whereas for liberals it’s below HYS but above CCNP

I mean I think even the student body there only like 15 percent is part of fedsoc
It's more just not a good # for people who aren't willing to clerk conservative. I'm sure they place liberal clerks at an above average rate for a t-6 though. Maybe higher (not entirely sure)

@texaslawhopefully: it's pretty funny how even in law journal articles people can't stop confusing Penn with Penn State
