Simple English definitions for legal terms

depletion

Read a random definition: court rules

A quick definition of depletion:

Depletion: When we use up a natural resource like oil, it is called depletion. This means that we are using it faster than it can be replaced. Companies that exploit these resources may get a tax deduction for the amount of depletion they cause. Depletion is like emptying a jar of cookies, once it's gone, it's gone.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Depletion is when a natural resource, like oil, is being used up. It is the process of emptying, exhausting, or wasting a finite resource.

For example, if a company is drilling for oil and they are using up all the oil in a particular area, that is depletion. The company may get a tax deduction for the amount of depletion because they won't be able to make money from the resource once it's gone.

Another example of depletion is when a forest is being cut down faster than it can grow back. This can lead to the depletion of the forest, which can have negative effects on the environment and the animals that live there.

Depletion is a serious issue because once a natural resource is gone, it's gone forever. It's important to use resources responsibly and find ways to conserve them for future generations.

UCI hella liberal and trans. I think you would like it. More liberal than like Berk and UCLA if you can imagine. @Eggan

I did astrophysics for 3 years and hated it. Dropped out of my first college cus of it. @limpweeny

Do not recommend studying physics. Super boring, a lot of math, and most results are not replicable.

Ill say this though. I studied a lot of Otto Hahn and was happy to see him at the start of Oppenheimer. Made a little appearance. Nice tribute.

@Dkk: i know the makeup of UCI but im not from california and i didn't like how i'd have to be isolated from the labor movement since it's not very close to LA and OC is mostly a bunch of rich people tbh
19:09
i like berk's proximity to san francisco. the bay area is full of surprises when it comes to labor
19:11
thats why i'm mostly centered on cities with major labor activity this cycle (besides chicago) such as NYC, boston DC (where the union headquarters usually are)
19:11
Anyone else hella concerned w the uptick in applicants? Not sure if I can use the LSD data of the past to reference
some dean said they're only expecting 5-15% increase over the whole cycle, still not great, but not 30% like currently
19:15
Ohhh okay thank goodness. I saw +38% and lowk got scared
19:16
That doesn’t seem too bad if they increase class size by a bit 🙏

Ahh that is true but OC Disney Unions. Can always be involved in those. Some of the biggest unions in California. I was part of that for a couple years but my union was corrupt. @Eggan

Berk is definitely more fun. Unions in LA are of course the screen actors guild and then hospitality stuff like restaurants. It will be good wherever you go imo if that is what you are into.

@sadpadresfan: yeah, Spivey said the same thing wasp pointed out. 30% to start to 15% at the end. I think part of it may also be people just want more variety. Maybe a similar amount of applicants but more variety. More waitlist movement potentially this year. Schools fighting harder for people.
@KnowledgeableRitzyWasp: the NU dean. Him and Spivey did a podcast on it.
And if you look at the numbers they're starting to come down. A couple weeks ago we were up 36 percent up, now we're only 26 percent up.

@texaslawhopefully: if you are trying to do texas law, why not go to UT Austin. Probably better scholarships for you compared to Harvard and its a pipeline. Unless, of course, scholarships don't matter in your case.
i studied hard stem but i just hate being in an actual lab lol
depends on the type of lab work that you do, the only thing i did enjoy doing was bacterial genetics because that shit is super fast and fun, but working in a wet lab is just a lottttt of sitting and waiting around
hence law, lmao
@NotJustALawyer: I'm trying to do an appellate clerkship and the very top schools just have better placement. And yes, I'm still considering UT, but I think with my numbers I can get scholarship money at most of the T14.
Also I made my username before I had my lsat back and then UT was my top choice, but I’ve been somewhat open geographically. I also have ties to Texas so I don’t think it’d be hard to get back here if I left the state for law school.
