subsequent remedial measure

Read a random definition: jump bail

A quick definition of subsequent remedial measure:

Subsequent Remedial Measure: This is when someone takes an action after something bad happens to try and prevent it from happening again. This action cannot be used as evidence to prove that someone was negligent, but it can be used to show who owns or controls something or if it was possible to prevent the bad thing from happening.

Subsidence: This is when the ground sinks or moves from its natural position.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Subsequent remedial measure refers to an action taken after an event that could have prevented the event from happening if taken before. This evidence is not admissible to prove negligence but can be used to prove ownership, control, feasibility, or similar factors.

Example: If a company installs safety equipment after an accident occurs, this is considered a subsequent remedial measure. This evidence cannot be used to prove that the company was negligent in not having the safety equipment before the accident, but it can be used to show that the company took steps to improve safety after the accident.

Explanation: The example illustrates how a subsequent remedial measure is an action taken after an event that could have prevented the event from happening if taken before. In this case, the company installed safety equipment after an accident occurred, which could have prevented the accident if it was installed before. However, this evidence cannot be used to prove negligence, but it can be used to show that the company took steps to improve safety after the accident.

@windyMagician: UCLA daughter. 100%.
do law schools care about course rigor?
@AcceptableSourGerbil: not really. It's a soft at best. Sadly, LSAC GPA and LSAT are by far the biggest gatekeepers
@AcceptableSourGerbil: you have solid stats though, you should be very proud!
Based on my experience, I don't think most schools care too much about course rigor unfortunately. It might push you over the edge to an A, but it won't get your foot in the door.
