A quick definition of lex causae:

Term: LEX CAUSAE

Definition: Lex causae means the set of rules and laws that are used to solve a legal problem or disagreement.

It's like a game with rules. When there is a problem, we need to follow the rules to find a fair solution. Lex causae is the set of rules we use to play the game of solving legal problems.

A more thorough explanation:

LEX CAUSAE

Lex causae is a Latin term that refers to the legal system that governs a dispute.

For example, if a person from the United States gets into a car accident while on vacation in France, the lex causae would be the French legal system because the accident occurred in France.

Another example would be if a company based in Japan is sued by a customer in the United States, the lex causae would be the legal system of the United States because the customer is located in the United States.

Lex causae is important because it determines which legal system will be used to resolve a dispute. This can be important because different legal systems have different laws and procedures, which can affect the outcome of a case. Understanding the lex causae is important for lawyers and judges who are involved in international cases or cases that involve parties from different countries.

@mastermonkey45: Looking at some of the recent decisions in relation to when they went complete, I'd say it's a good sign. It seems many declines were sent within about 5-6 weeks of completion. Given those were applications that were SENT in January, I'd say that means you're still solidly in the running. :)

Give it 4 more weeks at least. Everyone in this chat needs to wait longer.

It is frustrating when people are admitted who applied after you. But that’s just part of the game I guess
