A quick definition of preceptum amissionis superioritatis:

Term: PRECEPTUM AMISSIONIS SUPERIORITATIS

Definition: Preceptum amissionis superioritatis is a legal term that refers to a precept or order that forces a superior to allow a vassal's disponee entry to the land. It is used in historical contexts to describe a situation where a superior has lost their right to control the land and must allow the new owner to take possession.

A more thorough explanation:

PRECEPTUM AMISSIONIS SUPERIORITATIS

Preceptum amissionis superioritatis is a legal term that means "a precept of a lost superiority." It refers to a legal order that forces a superior to allow a vassal's disponee entry to the land.

For example, if a lord sells his land to a vassal, the vassal's disponee (the person who inherits the land from the vassal) may need a preceptum amissionis superioritatis to gain entry to the land. This legal order would require the lord to allow the disponee to enter and take possession of the land.

Another example would be if a vassal dies without an heir, and the lord wants to sell the land to someone else. The new owner would need a preceptum amissionis superioritatis to gain entry to the land, as the lord no longer has a vassal to grant entry to.

These examples illustrate how preceptum amissionis superioritatis was used in feudal societies to ensure that land ownership was properly transferred and that vassals and their heirs were protected.

WorthlessAttractiveZombie

9:45

TheAdoptedOne

9:46

I applied 9/25 to like 6 schools and some (Houston) have no date change yet so dw

soapy

But do people get in without addresses going long?

WorthlessAttractiveZombie

9:46

it's tough to tell because a lot of people type out their addresses long to begin with

soapy

9:46

The "date changes" at Michigan really don't mean anything. We had to do them in undergrad admissions whenever a Georgia applicant picked the country instead of the state, because we'd have to remove the TOEFL requirement and reassign the application from the international application readers.

Classy, does that mean they may look at your application, and that look doesn't necessarily trigger any date change?

@soapy: I don't know for sure about the law school. For undergrad, once the application is complete, it's assigned to a reader the following Monday. If we had to make any changes, it's because a reader saw something that needed to be changed and the application needed to be re-read after that change.

soapy

10:12

Ahh, got it. Thank you for the insight!

ClassyPleasantHeron

You're welcome. FWIW, I have no idea what's up with the address changes. We didn't have to do any of that, except for the Georgia state vs country kinds of things.

I've heard it theorized that some schools will change the address from "St." --> "Street" as they prepare to send out admissions packets. That's the rumor, anyways.
