A quick definition of quare intrusit:

Term: QUARE INTRUSIT

Definition: Quare intrusit was a legal writ used in the past that allowed a lord to recover the value of a marriage. This happened when the lord offered a suitable marriage to a ward, but the ward rejected it and married someone else. The writ was abolished by the Tenures Abolition Act in 1660.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Quare intrusit (kwair-ee in-troo-sit) is a legal term that refers to a writ used in the past to allow a lord to recover the value of a marriage. This writ was used when a lord offered a suitable marriage to a ward (a person under the lord's protection) but the ward rejected it and married someone else. The writ allowed the lord to recover the value of the marriage.

Example: For example, let's say Lord A had a ward named Jane. Lord A offered Jane a suitable marriage with a wealthy and influential man, but Jane rejected the offer and married someone else. Lord A could then use the quare intrusit writ to recover the value of the marriage he had offered to Jane.

Explanation: The example illustrates how the quare intrusit writ was used in the past to protect the interests of lords who had wards under their protection. If a ward rejected a suitable marriage offered by the lord and married someone else, the lord could use the writ to recover the value of the marriage he had offered. This helped to ensure that lords had some control over the marriages of their wards and could protect their own interests.

TheAdoptedOne

9:46

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

9:46

soapy

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?

What a good day to get into law school

@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.
