lot

Read a random definition: extra quattuor maria

A quick definition of lot:

A lot is a piece of land that has specific boundaries and is used for a particular purpose. There are different types of lots, such as a minimum lot, which is the smallest size allowed by local laws, and a nonconforming lot, which used to be legal but now violates zoning rules. A lot can also refer to an item that is sold or traded, such as a certain number of shares of stock or a specific amount of a commodity. When trading stocks or bonds, a round lot is the standard unit of trading, usually consisting of 100 shares of stock or $1,000 or $5,000 worth of bonds.

A more thorough explanation:

A lot is a piece of land that has specific boundaries or is used for a particular purpose. For example, a minimum lot is the smallest piece of land allowed by local zoning laws. A nonconforming lot is a piece of land that was previously lawful but now violates a newly adopted or amended zoning ordinance.

Lot can also refer to an article that is the subject of a separate sale, lease, or delivery, even if it is not enough to fulfill the contract. For instance, in trading, a lot is a specific number of shares or a particular quantity of a commodity designated for trading. An odd lot is a number of shares or bond value that is less than a round lot. A round lot is the established unit of trading for stocks and bonds, usually 100 shares or $1,000 or $5,000 par value for bonds.

Examples:

  • A developer bought a lot to build a new housing development.
  • The city's zoning laws require a minimum lot size of 5,000 square feet.
  • John inherited a nonconforming lot from his grandfather, which he cannot develop due to new zoning regulations.
  • The company purchased a lot of 1,000 units of a particular commodity for trading.
  • Emily bought an odd lot of 75 shares of a company's stock.
  • The stock exchange requires a round lot of 100 shares for trading.

These examples illustrate how the term "lot" can refer to a piece of land, a specific quantity of a commodity, or a unit of trading for stocks and bonds.

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
