A quick definition of suspension of judgment:

Suspension of Judgment: When a decision or judgment is postponed or stopped for a period of time. This can happen in legal cases when a judge orders a stay, which means to pause the legal proceedings or the judgment that was made. In bankruptcy cases, there is an automatic stay that stops creditors from trying to collect money from the person who filed for bankruptcy. In cases of domestic violence or juvenile delinquency, a stay-away order can be issued to prevent the offender from contacting the victim or going to certain places.

A more thorough explanation:

Suspension of judgment refers to the act of postponing or halting a legal proceeding or judgment. It can also be referred to as a stay.

  • In a bankruptcy case, an automatic stay is put in place to prevent creditors from collecting debts from the debtor or their property. This allows for the orderly administration of the debtor's assets without interference from creditors.
  • In a domestic violence case, a stay-away order may be issued to prohibit the defendant from contacting the victim or coming within a certain distance of their home, school, or workplace.
  • In a juvenile delinquency case, a stay-away order may be issued to prohibit the youthful offender from frequenting the scene of the offense or being in the company of certain individuals.

These examples illustrate how a suspension of judgment or stay can be used in different legal contexts to protect the rights and safety of individuals involved in a case.

Go to the school, Hofstra for example. Set the cycle to last year and sort the chart by date submitted. You can see when people who applied in December heard back last cycle
helloo everyone, does someone want to read one paragraph i wrote for GW law for the diversoty statement and tell me if it is good/bad?
In school, I was met with questions like, “Why are Muslim women oppressed?” or “Do you need bodyguards when you travel to Jordan?”
shoudl i keep those questions in there or is too much?

But, I guess it also depends on what the next few paragraphs are like. I personally am not a fan of rhetorical questions, as they're generally not well done, but they could work.
I like the questions but maybe italics instead of quotes so it feels more internal
like quotes are so blocky and chunky sometimes whereas italics feels more like seamless thoughts but I think that only works if it matches your writing style! I used rhetoricals in mine that way and it seems to have been working out okay
