Term: devisavit vel non

Definition: Devisavit vel non is a legal term that means "he (or she) devises or not." It refers to an issue that is sent from a chancery court to a court of law to determine the validity of a contested will. This may be due to allegations of fraud or incapacity of the testator. Essentially, it is a way to determine whether a will is legally binding or not.

A more thorough explanation:

Devisavit vel non

Devisavit vel non was a legal issue that arose when a will was contested in court. It was used to determine whether the will was valid or not. This issue was directed from a chancery court to a court of law. The court would investigate the allegations of fraud or testamentary incapacity and decide whether the will was valid or not.

For example, if a person's will was contested by their family members who claimed that the person was not of sound mind when they made the will, the court would issue a devisavit vel non to determine the validity of the will. The court would investigate the claims and decide whether the will was valid or not.

@texaslawhopefully: Not necessarily but I believe what Aristotle used to say. He used to say you could not have a functioning political system if you can not get gender relations right. Or essentially that.
KS does negotiate! I got an email saying theyre doing it for the first time this year
its rather limited but its not nothing

@HopefullyInLawSchool: noted, thanks for the intel. I know we joke around but all things conidered, KS is goated

@BigStrongBug: Nah aristotle only applies gender as a role which I think either sex could fulfill. My issue with Trump's EO to limit things to only sex but I am fine with him doing it for now.
Yeah and Aristotle old as hell boy he would’ve died of hysteria after learning what the internet and tiktok is

@SplitterusClitterus: I think some school shootings could have been prevented if gender relations were better.
Very few of any,, none come to my mind tbh

Not mental health regarding gender and usually it’s a gun kids get right in the house

@SplitterusClitterus: Well, I would say almost every one of them. Either due to more stable households, community connections or even better treatment of those going through divorced and whatnot. Almost every shooter has at least one of these elements included with their reasons for killing.

@Dkk: No. Aristotle said the family was the fundamental political unit, which is different than what you're saying. But, more to the point, the American political system exists vis-a-vis to 17/18th century political thought, or classical liberalism. Of which the central assumption is that the highest end is social choice.

Thanks y’all! I’m pumped about it

@Dkk: Yes, and he never said what you said he said. The closest he gets to that is that the family is the fundamental political unit.

And that's discussed pretty clearly in Book I of The Politics.
