A quick definition of procurator in rem suam:

Term: PROCURATOR IN REM SUAM

Definition: A procurator in rem suam is a person who is assigned the right to take legal action on behalf of someone else in Roman law. In other words, if someone bought something on behalf of another person, the principal would have to be made the agent's procurator to claim under that sale. In Scots law, this phrase refers to a situation in which a person acts under a power of attorney with reference to property that the person has acquired.

A more thorough explanation:

Procurator in rem suam is a Latin term that has two meanings:

  1. In Roman law, it refers to an assignee of a right of action. In other words, if someone bought something on behalf of another person, the principal would have to be made the agent's procurator to claim under that sale.
  2. In Scots law, it refers to a person who acts under a power of attorney with reference to property that the person has acquired.

Example 1: In Roman law, if a person bought a property on behalf of someone else, the person who bought the property would have to make the principal their procurator in order for the principal to claim the property.

Example 2: In Scots law, if a person acquires a property and then gives someone else the power of attorney to act on their behalf, that person would be acting as a procurator in rem suam.

These examples illustrate how procurator in rem suam is used in different legal systems to refer to a person who acts on behalf of someone else with respect to property rights.

I have not had a date change either for Mich but I've seen people get in without one so who knows
I applied 9/25 to like 6 schools and some (Houston) have no date change yet so dw

But do people get in without addresses going long?
WorthlessAttractiveZombie

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.

Ahh, got it. Thank you for the insight!

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.
