Simple English definitions for legal terms

eadem persona cum defuncto

Read a random definition: disabling statute

A quick definition of eadem persona cum defuncto:

Term: eadem persona cum defuncto

Definition: Eadem persona cum defuncto means that the same person as the decedent. In the past, if someone inherited all of a dead person's property, they were legally seen as the same person as the dead person.

A more thorough explanation:

eadem persona cum defuncto

In the past, when someone died, their property would be passed down to their heir. The law considered the heir to be the same person as the person who died. This means that the heir had full ownership of the property, just like the person who died did.

For example, if John died and left his house to his son, the law would consider John's son to be the same person as John. This means that John's son would have full ownership of the house, just like John did when he was alive.

@JumpySubsequentDolphin: I would push back on this. I think for the vast majority of people LSAT tutoring is unnecessary.

at the berk decision lmao
@madollyy: I focus on bringing your GPA up as much as possible in the last semester because once you graduate you cannot change that. So don't study for the LSAT next semester if you think that would impair your ability to get straight A's. As for LSAT studying, I would recommend LSAT Demon (ik controversial), the Loophole, and Reading Comp Hero.
*I would focus

@texaslawhopefully: oh I’m not sure hahaha im just basing off of my friend who got a tutor bc she was rly struggling and it seemed like it helped her!
Yeah, that's fair! For some people it can help a lot. I'm just saying in general I don't think it is necessary unless you are trying to finetune a very specific area (or get to the high 170s because that is another thing in and of itself) OR are just terrible at the test. I tutor the test and I find that most people can improve just as much through self-study.

i think for her it was a lack of discipline more than anything else tbh. she could not get herself to meaningfully study on her own

I've finished all my major requirements, so I'm taking pretty much all electives next semester. Keeping one major specific class bc I'm majoring in it for a reason haha. But I'll be pretty free to study and try and improve my GPA. I will try self study first, see where that gets me. If that doesn't work I'll look into tutoring!
the way there probs won't be another wave until after thanksgiving LMFAO
i hate this

most of the stuff a tutor will teach you is stuff you can figure out yourself if you’re sufficiently motivated. if you would benefit from some support and structure tutoring can be helpful
