Simple English definitions for legal terms

gentlemen's agreement

Read a random definition: incidental admission

A quick definition of gentlemen's agreement:

A gentlemen's agreement is a promise made between people without any written contract. It is based on trust and honesty between the parties involved. Even though it is not legally binding, it is still important to keep the agreement as it is based on the honor and integrity of those involved.

A more thorough explanation:

A gentlemen's agreement is an informal agreement between two parties that is not legally binding but is based on trust and honor. It is often used in business or politics as a way to avoid legal contracts or regulations.

  • Two companies agree not to compete with each other in a certain market.
  • A group of friends agree to split the cost of a vacation rental without signing a formal contract.
  • A politician promises to support a certain policy in exchange for support from another politician.

These examples illustrate how a gentlemen's agreement can be used in different contexts. In each case, the agreement is not legally binding, but relies on the trust and integrity of the parties involved. It is important to note that while a gentlemen's agreement may be effective in some situations, it can also be risky as there is no legal recourse if one party fails to uphold their end of the agreement.

Sent in my transcript at 6 am today and it’s processing. Think it will be processed before lsac closes tmrw?

I would say it is a toss up, for how much LSAC charges us for everything they are extremely efficient in processing and sending stuff out BUT with a 30% uptake in applicants and the holidays it may be significantly slower unless it is ran through and processed by a computer program. Even if it takes them longer to process it, not like there is anyone at a school to request and review it after LSAC does their thing
Do we know if any of the t14 open at all this week
just called Fordham. they said there will be decisions going out today
