Read a random definition: Single payer

A quick definition of Federal Rules Decisions:

Federal Rules Decisions: These are legal documents that help judges and lawyers understand how to apply the rules of federal court cases. They are often abbreviated as F.R.D. and are used to guide decisions in future cases.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Federal Rules Decisions, also known as F.R.D., refers to a series of books that contain court decisions related to the interpretation and application of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. These rules govern the procedures used in federal courts for civil cases.

Example: A plaintiff files a lawsuit in federal court against a defendant for breach of contract. The defendant files a motion to dismiss the case, arguing that the plaintiff failed to state a claim upon which relief can be granted. The court issues a decision on the motion, which is published in the F.R.D. series. This decision may be cited by other courts facing similar issues in the future.

Explanation: The example illustrates how a court decision related to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure can be published in the F.R.D. series. This series serves as a resource for lawyers and judges who need to understand how the rules have been interpreted and applied in previous cases. By citing these decisions, courts can ensure consistency in their application of the rules.

Nah, the fucked up thing about therapists is they try and make you think your parents are your enemy 99% of the time and really they should be telling you that your parents have almost no effect on the rest of your life. If they can get you to keep focusing on your parents they can keep making money.
