A quick definition of Plenary authority:

Plenary authority is a type of power that is very strong and can be used in many different ways. It is often so powerful that there are no limits to what it can do. When people talk about plenary power, they usually mean the power that government officials have to make decisions and take actions without any restrictions.

A more thorough explanation:

Plenary authority

Plenary authority refers to the power that is very broad and often limitless for all practical purposes. It is usually used to describe the power of public officials, and in this case, it is called plenary power.

1. The president of a country has plenary authority over the military, which means they have complete control over the armed forces.

2. A judge may have plenary authority over a court case, which means they have the power to make all the decisions related to the case.

The examples illustrate how plenary authority gives someone complete control over a particular area. In the first example, the president has complete control over the military, which means they can make all the decisions related to the armed forces. In the second example, the judge has complete control over the court case, which means they can make all the decisions related to the case. Plenary authority is often used to describe situations where someone has complete control over a particular area, and their power is very broad and often limitless.

Sent in my transcript at 6 am today and it’s processing. Think it will be processed before lsac closes tmrw?

I would say it is a toss up, for how much LSAC charges us for everything they are extremely efficient in processing and sending stuff out BUT with a 30% uptake in applicants and the holidays it may be significantly slower unless it is ran through and processed by a computer program. Even if it takes them longer to process it, not like there is anyone at a school to request and review it after LSAC does their thing
Do we know if any of the t14 open at all this week
just called Fordham. they said there will be decisions going out today
