Simple English definitions for legal terms

probabilis causa

Read a random definition: jus connubii

A quick definition of probabilis causa:

Probabilis causa is a Latin term that means "probable cause." It refers to the evidence or information that suggests that a crime or wrongdoing has occurred and that a particular person or group is responsible for it. In simpler terms, it is the reason why someone is suspected of doing something wrong.

A more thorough explanation:

Term: PROBABILIS CAUSA

Definition: Probabilis causa is a Latin term that means "probable cause." It refers to the evidence or information that is strong enough to suggest that a crime or wrongdoing has occurred, but not necessarily enough to prove it beyond a reasonable doubt.

Example: A police officer pulls over a driver who is swerving on the road. The officer smells alcohol on the driver's breath and notices that their eyes are bloodshot. This is probable cause for the officer to administer a breathalyzer test to determine if the driver is driving under the influence.

Explanation: In this example, the officer has enough evidence to suggest that the driver may be breaking the law by driving under the influence. However, this evidence alone is not enough to prove that the driver is guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. The officer needs to administer a breathalyzer test to gather more evidence before making an arrest or pressing charges.

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
