A quick definition of in aequali manu:

Term: IN AEQUALI MANU

Definition: In equal hand. This phrase is used in law to describe property that is held equally between two parties. For example, when two parties deposit an instrument with a neutral third person, it is said to be held in aequali manu. This means that neither party has more control over the property than the other. Another term for this is in aequa manu.

A more thorough explanation:

IN AEQUALI MANU

In equal hand. This phrase refers to property held indifferently between two parties, as when the parties to an instrument deposit it in the hands of a neutral third person.

It means that two parties have equal control over something, and it is being held by a third party who is neutral and not taking sides.

1. Two friends deposit their money with a trusted third person to hold it until they decide how to divide it.

2. A couple going through a divorce put their shared property in the hands of a lawyer until they can agree on how to divide it.

These examples illustrate the definition because in both cases, the property is being held by a neutral third party, and both parties have equal control over it. The phrase "in aequali manu" is used to describe this situation where neither party has an advantage over the other.

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
