Simple English definitions for legal terms

mislaid property

Read a random definition: antlike persistency

A quick definition of mislaid property:

Mislaid property refers to an item that was intentionally placed somewhere by the owner but was then forgotten or misplaced. It is different from lost property, which is an item that was unintentionally left behind. Property refers to the right to possess, use, and enjoy something, whether it is a piece of land or a physical object. There are different types of property, such as abandoned property, which is voluntarily surrendered by the owner, and income property, which produces income like rental property.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Mislaid property refers to an external thing over which the rights of possession, use, and enjoyment are exercised. It is property that is intentionally placed somewhere by the owner but is then forgotten or left behind. It is different from lost property, which is property that the owner unintentionally leaves behind and does not know where it is.

Example: If a person goes to a coffee shop and forgets their phone on the table, the phone is considered mislaid property. The owner intentionally placed the phone on the table but forgot to take it when leaving. The coffee shop is responsible for keeping the phone safe until the owner comes back to claim it.

Explanation: The example illustrates mislaid property because the phone was intentionally placed on the table by the owner but was then forgotten. The coffee shop has a duty to keep the phone safe until the owner comes back to claim it because the owner did not intend to abandon the phone. If the phone was lost, the owner would not know where it is, and the coffee shop would not have a duty to keep it safe.

Do the admissions offices close on Veterans Day?
I think someone here was really interested in Cornell Law. I forgot their username now but I just talked to the Cornell admissions rep at the Houston LSAC fair and apparently 2/3 of people who interview at Cornell ultimately get in.

I wonder what it’s dependent on? Are the 2/3 chosen on stats, or interview performance, or more holistically?
I'm honestly not sure

is Cornell a school where only people who interview get in?
I think so
She said historically a quarter get interview invites and then two thirds of those people get in.
