declaration of mailing

Read a random definition: agnatic

A quick definition of declaration of mailing:

Declaration of mailing is a paper that proves someone sent important information to the right person by mail. It's needed for things like telling someone about a lawsuit. The paper shows that the sender did what they were supposed to do, even if the other person says they didn't get it. The sender has to sign the paper and promise they're telling the truth.

A more thorough explanation:

Declaration of mailing is a legal document that proves that the required court materials have been sent to the correct recipient. This document is necessary for various legal documents, such as serving someone by mail. It ensures that the sender has taken the necessary steps to inform the other party of a lawsuit or other important information. The document also provides proof of mailing, even if the other party denies receiving the document.

The declaration of mailing is usually signed under penalty of perjury to ensure its validity. This means that if the sender lies on the document, they can be charged with perjury, which is a serious crime.

For example, if someone is suing another person, they may need to serve them with a copy of the lawsuit. If the person cannot be served in person, the lawsuit can be sent by mail. The sender would then file a declaration of mailing to prove that they sent the lawsuit to the correct address.

Another example is if a landlord needs to give notice to a tenant to vacate the property. If the tenant cannot be reached in person, the notice can be sent by mail. The landlord would then file a declaration of mailing to prove that they sent the notice to the correct address.

These examples illustrate how the declaration of mailing is used to provide proof that legal documents have been sent to the correct recipient. It is an essential document in the legal system that ensures fairness and transparency.

i don't think it has a detrimental effect on your chances of admission
13:34
but also you don't need to tell them anything so lol
Can y'all help me understand something lol. What does it mean for an app to "go complete"? Is that when the school has reviewed it and made a decision?
13:35
Na, it's when they have all the required information
Gotcha. So what would be the difference between received and completed?
Does complete entail like the app + LORs?
13:35
correct
That makes sense. Thank you!
13:36
complete basically means they've acknowledged receipt and it's ready to go under review whenever they start the deliberative process

I still haven't had Chicago or Cornell go complete, but I think that's just how they be
13:41
when did you submit
CaringEquableGuppy
13:42
How do you know when an application is complete? Is it on LSAC or the school's portal?
13:43
it'll be on the school-specific portal
Quillinit
13:44
when they opened
Quillinit
13:45
they both say something along the lines of "received and waiting to be processed"
13:48
anyone have good resources for revising a personal statement for reuse after applying with it last cycle?
13:49
Any guesses when Cornell and Penn CRS fee waivers will go out?
13:51
@Quillinit: from my recollection, chicago and cornell collapse complete/UR1 into a single step, so they may simply not be ready to begin reviewing applications
13:52
i think it's fair to assume, barring a handful of schools like UVA, most schools won't begin reviewing applications in earnest until the beginning of next month at the earliest, so it wouldn't be surprising to hear that applications are just sitting in the queue
13:54
@oakenrays: I was just gonna write a new one personally but I think you want to make it recognizably different from your previous PS
13:56
@baddestbunny: definitely agree that some revision and additional information is warranted but, my why law is the same... I guess just tell the same story in a different way
14:03
ugh fineeee I'll write a new stupid essay
14:07
yeah I told my last essay about a formative experience and am trying to update it now to be about what I’ve learned since that experience
recently wrapped up interview
i re-wrote my PS this cycle when I reapplied
fire drill at work
