Term: DICIS CAUSA

Definition: In Roman law, dicis causa means doing something for the sake of appearance or on the surface. It refers to transactions that are completed in a certain way to hide their true purpose.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Dicis causa is a Latin term used in Roman law to refer to transactions completed in a certain form to conceal their true purpose. It means "for form's sake" or "on the surface."

Example: A person may sell a property to another person for a nominal amount of money, but the true purpose of the transaction is to transfer ownership without paying taxes or fulfilling legal requirements. In this case, the transaction is completed dicis causa, meaning that it is done for form's sake to conceal the true purpose of the sale.

Explanation: The example illustrates how dicis causa can be used to hide the true purpose of a transaction. By completing the sale in a certain form, the parties involved can avoid legal requirements or taxes that would apply if the true purpose of the sale were known. Dicis causa transactions are often used to deceive or defraud others, and they are generally considered illegal or unethical.

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
