A quick definition of quod ei deforceat:

Term: quod ei deforceat

Definition: Quod ei deforceat is a legal term that means "that he deforces him". It refers to a writ that was allowed by St. Westm. 2, 13 Edw., ch. 4 for the owners of a particular estate who had lost land unwittingly by default in a possessory action. This writ was only available to owners in fee simple before this time.

A more thorough explanation:

quod ei deforceat

Quod ei deforceat is a legal term that means "that he deforces him." It was a writ that allowed owners of a specific type of estate, such as a life estate or fee tail, to recover land that they had lost unknowingly due to a possessory action. Before this writ was allowed, only owners in fee simple could recover their property after such a default.

An example of quod ei deforceat would be if someone had a life estate in a piece of land, but they lost it due to a legal action that they were not aware of. They could then use the quod ei deforceat writ to recover their land.

Another example would be if someone had a fee tail estate, but they lost their land due to a possessory action. They could then use the quod ei deforceat writ to recover their land.

These examples illustrate how the quod ei deforceat writ was used to help owners of specific types of estates recover their land after losing it due to legal actions they were not aware of.

Wow... Luigi Mangione just pled Not Guilty. He has to be banking on a jury nullification play, right? Honestly voir dire will be the most impactful part of the trial by far, I can't imagine the defense can present any credible exculpatory evidence.

I think he just wants it to go to trial

BruceSutter

they're charging him with terrorism, was he ever going to get a plea deal that was even remotely worth taking?

Dude wants to be famous and seen as a martyr this is his chance

GreyCeaselessMammoth

i think they want to roll the dice

I can understand that, but that's exactly why I would offer him a halfway decent plea deal as the DA. Maybe offer 25 years at medium security, as opposed to being guaranteed to die at ADX Florence.

its a state case, right?

snow

12:06

not federal?

Unrepentant-Caucasian

12:06

Oh yeah, my bad

snow

12:07

you're good, i was just making sure. yeah, i would take it to trial

snow

12:07

you just need one juror

snow

12:07

but i think that if i were the state, i would not be scared to bust the jury if i had to

Unrepentant-Caucasian

12:08

I mean, you only need one juror to get a hung jury and a retrial, you need all 12 to get found innocent

I do not see him doing a long time, if he is not punished hard then more (less attractive) crazy people will come out and start murdering for social justice and expect the same

BulbasaurNoLikeCardio

12:08

*him not doing a long time

snow

12:08

need to see what all he is charged with tbh

snow

12:09

and the possibility for parole in new york

snow

12:09

in texas murder is a 3g offense and he would have to do have that time before parole eligibility. idk how new york works

snow

12:11

half

Too public of a case, they have to go hard on the dude and in a couple years when people forget I am sure he can apply and get a lesser sentence or possibility of parole added. Dude needs to blame all the self medication he did

snow

12:13

that works in his favor that the case is public, at least this case. thats why i think the state shouldnt be scared to bust the jury if they really want to get him

Unrepentant-Caucasian

12:14

@snow: I don't know what you mean by "bust the jury"

Unrepentant-Caucasian

12:14

Can you elaborate?

I also do not forsee him being the kind of person being able to function and be good in prison. Going to be a wake up call

BulbasaurNoLikeCardio

He thinks his back is broke now... wait until Bubbah shows him what a broke back really is

snow

yep, in jury selection you get a panel of jurors come in and from there you eliminate the ones that you dont want, until you get twelve. "busting the jury panel" means that there wouldnt be enough jurors to form a jury for the case so they would have to get another panel

uw sending cycle update emails when they've had me in complete for 2 months is crazy work

snow

12:17

so if i were the state, i wouldnt be scared to go through multiple panels to get a good jury. the judge would probs be mad but oh well

windyMagician

he'll be fine in prison. he also probably has a fed case being built against him.
