Simple English definitions for legal terms

half-proof

Read a random definition: strong-arm clause

A quick definition of half-proof:

Half-Proof: In civil law, half-proof means evidence provided by only one witness or a private document. It is not enough to support a decision or judgment. It is like having some evidence, but not enough to prove something completely.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Half-proof is a type of evidence that is not strong enough to support a decision or ruling. In civil law, it can refer to proof established by only one witness or a private document.

For example, if a person is accused of a crime and there is only one witness who saw the crime happen, this would be considered half-proof. The testimony of one witness alone may not be enough to convict the accused. Similarly, if a private document is presented as evidence in a civil case, it may only be considered half-proof if there is no other supporting evidence.

Half-proof is not enough to make a final decision or ruling. It is only considered as a starting point for further investigation or evidence gathering.

Do the admissions offices close on Veterans Day?
I think someone here was really interested in Cornell Law. I forgot their username now but I just talked to the Cornell admissions rep at the Houston LSAC fair and apparently 2/3 of people who interview at Cornell ultimately get in.

I wonder what it’s dependent on? Are the 2/3 chosen on stats, or interview performance, or more holistically?
I'm honestly not sure

is Cornell a school where only people who interview get in?
I think so
She said historically a quarter get interview invites and then two thirds of those people get in.
