separability clause

Read a random definition: geodetic-survey system

A quick definition of separability clause:

Separability Clause: A separability clause is a legal provision that states that if any part of a contract or law is found to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining parts of the contract or law will still be valid and enforceable. This means that even if one part of the contract or law is deemed illegal or unenforceable, the rest of the contract or law can still be upheld and enforced.

A more thorough explanation:

A separability clause is a legal provision that states that if any part of a contract or law is found to be invalid or unenforceable, the rest of the contract or law will still remain in effect.

For example, a contract between two parties may have a separability clause that states that if one part of the contract is found to be illegal, the rest of the contract will still be valid. This means that the parties can still be held accountable for the parts of the contract that are legal and enforceable.

Another example is a law that has a separability clause. If a court finds that one part of the law is unconstitutional, the rest of the law will still be in effect. This ensures that the government can still enforce the parts of the law that are constitutional and necessary.

The purpose of a separability clause is to prevent an entire contract or law from being invalidated just because one part of it is found to be invalid. This helps to ensure that the parties involved can still benefit from the parts of the contract or law that are valid and enforceable.

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

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.
i think it just indicates a change in status like under review or stages of review
my stanford address went long as soon as it was marked complete lmao
