A quick definition of leuca:

Term: leuca

Definition: In French law, a leuca was a unit of measurement that equaled either 1,500 or 1,000 paces. A pace is the distance covered by one step. Additionally, a leuca could refer to a special area of one mile around a monastery that was considered privileged or protected.

A more thorough explanation:

leuca

Leuca is a term used in French law and history. It refers to a unit of measurement for distance. There are three different definitions of leuca:

  1. A league that is made up of 1,500 paces.
  2. A league that is made up of 1,000 paces.
  3. A special area that is one mile in radius around a monastery.

Example 1: The distance between two towns was measured to be three leucas. This means that the distance between the two towns is either 3,000 or 4,500 paces, depending on which definition of leuca is being used.

Example 2: The monks at the monastery were allowed to use the leuca to claim a special area around their monastery. This meant that no one else could build within one mile of the monastery.

These examples illustrate how leuca was used as a unit of measurement for distance and as a way to define a special area around a monastery.

Irvine is being snobby and wont start any review until end of Nov.
Yeah, it’s tough. I’m distracting myself by playing good video games after work :)
im distracting myself by schizo-scrolling r/lawschoolamissions and every conceivable data point on this godforsaken website

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
