A quick definition of lex ligeantiae:

Term: LEX LIGEANTIAE

Definition: Lex ligeantiae is a Latin term that refers to the law of the country to which a person owes their national allegiance. This law is important because it can determine many legal questions that have traditionally been decided by the law of the country where a person lives (lex domicilii).

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Lex ligeantiae (leks lij-ee-an-shee-ee) is a Law Latin term that refers to the law of the country to which a person owes national allegiance. Some legal experts believe that this law should be used to decide many of the questions that are typically determined by the lex domicilii.

For example, if a person is a citizen of the United States but is living in Canada, the lex ligeantiae would be the laws of the United States. This means that if this person were to get into legal trouble while in Canada, the laws of the United States would be used to determine their legal rights and responsibilities.

Another example would be if a person is a citizen of France but is living in the United Kingdom. In this case, the lex ligeantiae would be the laws of France. If this person were to get into legal trouble while in the UK, the laws of France would be used to determine their legal rights and responsibilities.

These examples illustrate how the lex ligeantiae is used to determine which country's laws should be applied to a person based on their national allegiance. It is important to note that this can sometimes be different from the laws of the country in which they are currently residing (the lex domicilii).

@ClockworkBlue: god I hope that's true
if the country was run the same as Mich Law it would be a better place
Imagine if election night was run by an adcom? Like, "yep, we could get the results Friday, or June 2025."
imagine if it was like Berkley applications

I have no idea why people have so much beef w berkeley's app
I've been reading a bit about "herding," which is this idea that pollsters are making the race look tied so they look right no matter who wins.

Like... it's a more involved app but you don't have to do it? They're clearly trying to have some self-selection go on
I 100% agree with the self selection, I also am not even close to touching the medians there. However I think the huge PS plus the video and especially the very specific criteria for the why Berkeley essay is pretty crazy
I'm curious, how bold can one be in those videos? Is it worth making a satirical Jason Statham-action short if the adcoms have no sense of humor?
the more risk you take the higher chance of it backfiring
my instinct would be low humor bc if they have such a complex application I would feel hesitant to use a major part of it as a joke. They clearly take their admissions seriously and a joke video might convey the wrong thing at the wrong time. I think that humor is best put into a PS anecdote where it adds some shine to your personality
safe is always better
All good points
