A quick definition of private injury:

Private injury: When someone hurts you or damages your property, it is called an injury. Private injury is when this happens to you personally, like if you get hurt in a car accident or someone breaks into your house and damages your things. The law can help you get compensation for your private injury.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Private injury refers to harm or damage caused to an individual's person, character, or property as a result of another person's breach of duty. It is a violation of the injured person's legal rights, for which the law provides a remedy.

Examples:

A person is injured in a car accident caused by another driver's negligence.
An individual is physically assaulted by someone else.
A person's reputation is damaged by false statements made by another individual.

These examples illustrate private injury because they involve harm or damage caused to an individual's person, character, or property as a result of another person's breach of duty. In each case, the injured person has a legal right to seek a remedy for the harm caused to them.

Also to note, a small percentage of students transfer, I could not see a patern (ie to transfer to the T14, you MUST attend a T100) so grades matter. https://www.reddit.com/r/LawSchoolTransfer/ may be helpful.

hcarralero i think you should r&r because i fully think you are only going to take your acceptance with the thought that youre going to transfer and thats really not a good idea

hcarralero2005

10:18

r&r is just not a choice for me

legallybrunettelily

10:18

yes you have this idea that you will be top of your class and straight as but theres probably at least 20 other people at your school that have that same plan to be top of the class

It seems you are at a crossroads in life: either do as told by parents who likely do not understand the nuances of law school admissions, or else R&R and likely cause issues with your family. A tough spot for sure.
