product test

A quick definition of product test:

Product Test: A test used in criminal law to determine if a defendant is not responsible for their actions due to mental illness or defect. The Durham rule, which was formerly used in some states, stated that a defendant is not criminally responsible if their actions were a product of mental disease or defect. However, this rule has been criticized as being too broad and is no longer accepted in any American jurisdiction.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A test used in criminal law to determine if a defendant is not criminally responsible for an act due to mental disease or defect. The product test, also known as the Durham rule, holds that the act was a product of the defendant's mental condition.

Example: In the case of Durham v. United States, the defendant argued that he was not responsible for his actions due to mental illness. The court applied the product test and found that his actions were a product of his mental condition, and therefore he was not criminally responsible.

Explanation: The product test is used to determine if a defendant's actions were a direct result of their mental condition. If it is found that the actions were a product of their mental illness, they may not be held criminally responsible. This test has been criticized for being too broad and is no longer accepted in any American jurisdiction.

Irvine is being snobby and wont start any review until end of Nov.
Yeah, it’s tough. I’m distracting myself by playing good video games after work :)
im distracting myself by schizo-scrolling r/lawschoolamissions and every conceivable data point on this godforsaken website

Haaa I naturally want to do that too. I’m trying to stop. They need a surgeon general’s warning on this site for perspective law students
i spend more time on here then anything else trying to rationalize that the waves from last year will match waves for this year (they won't) and that the stats of people with the same stats are indicative of my own (they aren't)
There aren't many people in my stat range so I pretty much know every result in my range after being on here for a few years
