Term: LEX DELICTI

Definition: Lex delicti is a Latin term that refers to the law of the place where a tort or other wrong was committed. It is also known as lex loci delicti, place-of-wrong rule, or place-of-wrong law. In simple terms, it means that the law that applies to a wrongdoing is the law of the place where it happened. For example, if someone is injured in a car accident in California, the law that applies to the case would be California law.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Lex delicti is a Latin term that refers to the law of the place where a tort or other wrong was committed. It is also known as lex loci delicti.

Example: If a person is injured in a car accident while driving in California, the lex delicti would be the law of California, which would govern any legal action taken in relation to the accident.

This means that if the injured person wants to file a lawsuit against the driver who caused the accident, they would need to follow the legal procedures and laws of California, even if they are from a different state or country.

Overall, lex delicti is an important concept in the field of conflict of laws, as it helps to determine which jurisdiction's laws should apply in cases where a wrong has been committed in one place but legal action is being taken in another.

As an R&Rer i can tell you your recommendations stay in LSAC for like five years or something and you don’t have to re-request them

I am an R&R advocate if you know you can do better on the LSAT or write better essays or you just want more time to figure out what you’re doing with your life. Was a really good choice for me

You can re-use recommendations, but if you're reapplying and expecting different results, you should get at least one new/updated recommendation.

I've heard that too---which is tough, because what if the only problem was funding? (Or in that case can you defer and try to renegotiate scholarship or something?)
[] c0bra1
13:24
yeahh and i don't know how picky schools are about the deferment reason - idk if "i want to work so i can make money and come back later" is an approved reason lol
