Lady Day

Read a random definition: praejuramentum

A quick definition of Lady Day:

Lady Day is a special day that happens four times a year. It is one of the quarter days, which means it is a day when people used to pay rent or debts. In England and Wales, Lady Day is on March 25th. It is also called a natural day, which is a 24-hour period when the sun is up. Lady Day is important because it used to be a time when people settled disputes and helped their neighbors without payment.

A more thorough explanation:

Lady Day is a quarter day, which means it is one of four days during the year when money owed, such as rent, was legally or customarily payable. In England and Wales, Lady Day is on March 25th. In Scotland, the traditional quarter or term days are Candlemas, February 2; Whitsunday (or Whitsuntide), May 15; Lammas, August 1; and Martinmas, November 11.

For example, if someone rented a house and their rent was due on Lady Day, they would need to pay it on March 25th. If they didn't pay it on that day, they might have to pay a fine or face legal consequences.

That makes sense. Was looking into Cornell clerking stats https://www.lawschool.cornell.edu/careers/judicial-clerkships/
U kno even tho their circuit numbers don't compare to other schools, those #s are better than expected tbh
40-50 fed clerks is pretty cool

Is it really like no clerkship benefit at Chicago if you’re not conservative?

No, at least from the two people I know there that’s false. I think it’s just something like Chicago for conservatives is on par with S whereas for liberals it’s below HYS but above CCNP

I mean I think even the student body there only like 15 percent is part of fedsoc
It's more just not a good # for people who aren't willing to clerk conservative. I'm sure they place liberal clerks at an above average rate for a t-6 though. Maybe higher (not entirely sure)

Chicago/UVA are more to the right but not by an exceedingly large difference
