A quick definition of filius mulieratus:

Term: filius mulieratus

Definition: Filius mulieratus is a Latin term used in law history to refer to the eldest legitimate son of a woman who had an illegitimate son by the same father before. It means that the legitimate son has an older brother who is illegitimate. It is also known as mulier puisne. This term is different from bastard eisne, which refers to a younger brother born after the parents' marriage.

A more thorough explanation:

filius mulieratus

Filius mulieratus is a Latin term used in historical law. It refers to the eldest son of a woman who had an illegitimate son by the same father before having a legitimate son. In other words, it is a legitimate son whose older brother is illegitimate.

  • John is the filius mulieratus of Mary. Mary had a son named Tom out of wedlock before marrying John's father and having John.
  • Elizabeth had a son named Jack with her partner before getting married and having a son named William. William is the filius mulieratus of Elizabeth.

These examples illustrate the definition of filius mulieratus. In both cases, the women had an illegitimate son before having a legitimate son with the same father. The legitimate sons, John and William, are considered filius mulieratus because they have an older brother who is illegitimate.

bro was just asking a question
U have great stats! I wouldn't be too nervous. Did u write why Northwestern and why Chicago?
oh cornells going wl crazy
16:22
having a masters degree is probably a positive, it shows you can do grad level coursework and probably generated a strong rec letter
@RightPlant: you have a great chance at Northwestern!
Chicago, also not a bad chance, but it is more of a crapshoot
Esp since they care more about GPA than LSAT
