A quick definition of donation claim:

A donation claim is a request for money, property, or legal action that someone believes they have a right to. It can also refer to a claim for ownership of land under a donation act or bounty-land warrant. There are different types of claims, such as honest claims made by someone who believes they have a right to something, liquidated claims for a specific amount, and unliquidated claims where the amount owed has not been determined. It is important to note that a claim does not always mean the person making it will receive what they are asking for.

A more thorough explanation:

A donation claim is a demand for money, property, or a legal remedy to which one asserts a right. It is a part of a complaint in a civil action specifying what relief the plaintiff asks for. It can also refer to a claim for ownership of land under a donation act or bounty-land warrant.

  • A person donates land to a charity, but later changes their mind and wants it back. The charity makes a donation claim to assert their right to keep the land.
  • A veteran makes a donation claim for ownership of land under a donation act or bounty-land warrant.

These examples illustrate how a donation claim is a demand for something that the claimant believes they have a right to. In the first example, the charity believes they have a right to keep the land that was donated to them. In the second example, the veteran believes they have a right to ownership of the land under the donation act or bounty-land warrant.

I told my family I won’t get any decisions until 2025 so they wouldn’t bombard me hahah
no i think there should be a Law School combine with all new drills except there is still the 40 yard dash
and a sub 4.5 gets you into any t14
LSAT can be one of the drills
