livery in chivalry

Read a random definition: non est

A quick definition of livery in chivalry:

Livery in Chivalry: In the past, when a person who was a minor inherited land or property, it was held by a guardian until they reached adulthood. When they became an adult, the guardian would give them possession of the property. This process was called livery in chivalry.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Livery in chivalry refers to the act of delivering possession of real property from a guardian to a ward in chivalry when the ward reaches the age of majority.

Example: In medieval times, when a nobleman died leaving his heir a minor, the king would take control of the estate until the heir reached the age of majority. Once the heir turned 21, the king would perform the livery in chivalry, which involved handing over the estate to the heir.

Explanation: The example illustrates how livery in chivalry was used to transfer ownership of real property from a guardian to a ward in chivalry. In this case, the king acted as the guardian and the heir as the ward. Once the heir reached the age of majority, the king would perform the livery in chivalry, which was a formal ceremony that involved handing over the estate to the heir. This ensured that the heir had full control over the property and could manage it as he saw fit.

Minus those random R decisions from UMN yesterday though right? I wonder what happened there. I don’t think I’ve seen a school start the season out with anything but As on here
almost all of my apps have been UR for 6 weeks at this point I feel exhausted waiting for them to finish
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
it is not working
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

I mean if Fordham doesn't release today I will purposefully get on a train, go to new york, and then take the stinkiest shit inside the admission office's toilet (potentially clogging it and forcing them to get a plumber)
