Mimms order

Read a random definition: extreme cruelty

A quick definition of Mimms order:

A Mimms order is when a police officer tells a driver to get out of their car. This command doesn't need a separate reason if the initial stop was legal. It comes from a court case called Pennsylvania v. Mimms.

A more thorough explanation:

A Mimms order is a command given by a police officer to a driver to get out of their vehicle. This order does not need to be justified if the initial stop was lawful.

For example, if a police officer pulls over a driver for a traffic violation and suspects that the driver may be armed, they may give a Mimms order for the driver to exit the vehicle. This is to ensure the safety of both the officer and the driver.

A mina is a historical measure of grain or corn.

For example, in ancient times, a mina was used as a unit of measurement for trading grain or corn. It was equivalent to about 50 shekels.

Minage is a historical toll for selling grain or corn by the mina.

For example, in medieval Europe, a minage was a tax or toll that was imposed on merchants who sold grain or corn by the mina. This tax was used to fund local infrastructure projects.

Minare is a historical term that means "to mine."

For example, in ancient times, people would use tools to minare or mine for precious metals like gold and silver. This was a dangerous and difficult job that required a lot of skill and expertise.

The mind is the source of thought and intellect. It is the seat of mental faculties and the ability to will, direct, or assent. It also includes memory.

For example, when we think, reason, or make decisions, we are using our mind. Our mind also allows us to remember things from the past and learn new information.
