A quick definition of ex fictione juris:

Term: EX FICTIONE JURIS

Definition: Ex fictione juris means "by a fiction of law" in Latin. It refers to a legal concept where a court or legislature creates a fictional scenario or assumption to achieve a desired outcome. This means that the law may not reflect reality, but rather a made-up scenario that is used to achieve a specific legal result.

A more thorough explanation:

EX FICTIONE JURIS

Ex fictione juris is a Latin term that means "by a fiction of law." It refers to a legal concept where a court assumes something to be true, even if it is not, in order to achieve a certain legal outcome.

One example of ex fictione juris is the legal fiction of "adverse possession." This is a legal concept where someone can gain ownership of a piece of property by occupying it for a certain period of time, even if they do not have legal title to it. The court assumes that the person has been using the property with the owner's permission, even if they have not, in order to transfer ownership to the occupier.

Another example is the legal fiction of "incorporation by reference." This is a concept where a document can be considered part of another document, even if it is not physically attached or included in the original document. The court assumes that the referenced document is part of the original document, in order to achieve a certain legal outcome.

Ex fictione juris is a legal concept that allows courts to make assumptions in order to achieve a certain legal outcome. These assumptions are based on legal fictions, which are not necessarily true in reality, but are assumed to be true for legal purposes. The examples of adverse possession and incorporation by reference illustrate how ex fictione juris works in practice, by showing how courts can use legal fictions to achieve certain legal outcomes.

My berkeley paragraph finally disappeared. I definitely think it is just an indicator that they are actively reviewing files, and does not mean anything about A, WL, or Rs

UMN under review! As predicted, decisions are gonna come out early December
Minus those random R decisions from UMN yesterday though right? I wonder what happened there. I don’t think I’ve seen a school start the season out with anything but As on here
almost all of my apps have been UR for 6 weeks at this point I feel exhausted waiting for them to finish
Irvine is being snobby and wont start any review until end of Nov.
Yeah, it’s tough. I’m distracting myself by playing good video games after work :)
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
