A quick definition of triggering condition:

A triggering condition is an event that must happen before something else can happen. For example, if someone promises to pay for a car repair, the triggering condition is that the car must actually be repaired. If the car isn't repaired, the person doesn't have to pay. Triggering conditions can be written in contracts or implied by law. They can also be used in criminal law as a defense if the conditions make it impossible to commit a crime.

A more thorough explanation:

A triggering condition is an uncertain event that determines the existence or extent of an obligation or liability in a contract. It can be a future event that triggers or negates a duty to perform a promised action. For example, if Jones promises to pay Smith $500 for repairing a car, Smith's failure to repair the car relieves Jones of the promise to pay.

There are different types of triggering conditions, such as:

  • Express condition: A condition that is explicitly stated in a contract.
  • Implied condition: A condition that is not expressly mentioned but is imputed by law from the nature of the transaction or the conduct of the parties.
  • Constructive condition: A condition imposed by law to do justice, such as the cooperation of the parties to a contract.
  • Conditional promise: A promise that is subject to a condition, such as "I will pay you $100 if you mow my lawn."

These examples illustrate how a triggering condition can affect the performance of a contract and the obligations of the parties involved. It is important to identify and understand the triggering conditions in a contract to ensure that all parties fulfill their duties and obligations.

UMN under review! As predicted, decisions are gonna come out early December
Minus those random R decisions from UMN yesterday though right? I wonder what happened there. I don’t think I’ve seen a school start the season out with anything but As on here
almost all of my apps have been UR for 6 weeks at this point I feel exhausted waiting for them to finish
Irvine is being snobby and wont start any review until end of Nov.
Yeah, it’s tough. I’m distracting myself by playing good video games after work :)
im distracting myself by schizo-scrolling r/lawschoolamissions and every conceivable data point on this godforsaken website
it is not working
Haaa I naturally want to do that too. I’m trying to stop. They need a surgeon general’s warning on this site for perspective law students
i spend more time on here then anything else trying to rationalize that the waves from last year will match waves for this year (they won't) and that the stats of people with the same stats are indicative of my own (they aren't)
There aren't many people in my stat range so I pretty much know every result in my range after being on here for a few years

I mean if Fordham doesn't release today I will purposefully get on a train, go to new york, and then take the stinkiest shit inside the admission office's toilet (potentially clogging it and forcing them to get a plumber)
