Simple English definitions for legal terms

Supreme Court

Read a random definition: applied-art doctrine

A quick definition of Supreme Court:

Supreme Court: The highest court in a place, like the United States or California. It's the most important court and makes big decisions that affect everyone. Sometimes there are other courts with "Supreme Court" in their name, but they're not as important as the real Supreme Court.

A more thorough explanation:

Supreme Court

The Supreme Court is the highest court in a jurisdiction. For example, the Supreme Court of the United States is the highest court in the country. It is responsible for interpreting the Constitution and making decisions on important legal issues. In some jurisdictions, there may be a lower court called the Supreme Court, but this is just a name and does not indicate any higher appellate power. For example, the Kings County Supreme Court in Brooklyn, New York is a lower court in the state's judicial system.

One example of the Supreme Court is the United States Supreme Court. This court has the final say on legal issues in the country and its decisions are binding on all lower courts. Another example is the Supreme Court of California, which is the highest court in the state. It hears appeals from lower courts and has the power to interpret state law.

The Kings County Supreme Court in Brooklyn, New York is an example of a lower court that is called the Supreme Court. Despite its name, it is not the highest court in the state and its decisions can be appealed to higher courts.

These examples illustrate the definition of the Supreme Court as the highest court in a jurisdiction. They also show that in some jurisdictions, there may be a lower court called the Supreme Court, but this does not indicate any higher appellate power.

Playing the wl game from april onwards is getting high on your own supply. That supply being endorphins that make you happy. Sure, get high on copium like I did last year with George Mason and William & Mary. Just be ready for the crash.
How bad would this look on an application. Tl;dr “I want to go into big law for a few years so I can purchase a homestead and live off the seed I sow for my future family, and once I have lived out that life (decade or so) I will run for local and eventually federal office to help working class people.” Is the mere fact that I want to go into big law for finances going to ruin my T14 chances?
Honestly, helping working class people looks bad on any app.
T
Is that a joke?
Jk. I love the idea but I can't take this seriously so I won't say anymore. It's so true but I can't do it.
I cud see it not being from the sense they wont believe me
Wait ahahah. Okay lol
Look man it's the right life philosophy but the target audience, idk if they can get it. It's literally what I told my law firms when I was hired as a paralegal but for law school, idk.
Its actually my plan in life. If i cud move back 1000s of years ago aand live in a North American tribe i wud. This feels like the best way i can escape the system for awhile, and then return to diminsh the damage
Wait. So u talked about helping working class people?
Yeah, my ultimate goal in law is to help working class people. That's what the PI people say but I think the only real way to do it is through fed clerks or big law.
Wouldn't we all love to live in a Jeffersonian society.
Full respect
Why do you think that you can make an impact for working class people through Big Law though, usually thats asssistance of the big corporations
Yes, an agrarian, non-industrialized society would be quite lovely. I still believe its possible to go back tho, in some form
Well it was good briefly talking to you. I’m searching for a sample size of 5 on my post regarding my application. I wont be on tomorrow so hopefully i can see the responses in here. If not, and you are capable, please DM me. I really do appreciate opinions. Love ya team!
The person who wants to help working class, what state are you from?
Wont be on until tomorrow*
I am from Idaho! An unfortunately conservative state although its pretty chill here tbh
Okay i g2g tho! Goooodnighhttt
