Simple English definitions for legal terms

unconscionable

Read a random definition: line of demarcation

A quick definition of unconscionable:

Term: unconscionable

Definition: Unconscionable means something is very unfair and unjust. It is often used to describe contracts that have extremely unfair terms. If a court finds a contract to be unconscionable, it cannot be enforced. It is like a rule that says, "This is so wrong that we can't let it happen."

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Unconscionable means something that is so unfair or unjust that it shocks the conscience. It can also refer to someone who is unscrupulous and lacks a conscience. In contract law, it is used to describe contracts that have grossly oppressive and unfair terms. If a court finds a contract unconscionable, it cannot be enforced.

1. A landlord who raises the rent by 500% without any notice or reason is acting unconscionably.

2. A company that sells a product with hidden fees and charges that were not disclosed to the customer is engaging in unconscionable business practices.

3. A contract that requires a person to give up all legal rights and protections in exchange for a small amount of money is an example of an unconscionable contract.

These examples illustrate how unconscionable behavior or contracts can be extremely unfair and unjust. They take advantage of people who may not have the resources or knowledge to protect themselves. Courts will not enforce contracts that are unconscionable because they violate basic principles of fairness and justice.

I think it can be ambiguous, but it should be something the viewer should be able to figure out. If not then what is the point. In terms of audience intelligence, I don't think the highest level of movie watchers would care for this movie. I think the opposite. The movie does not appeal to the highest level of movie watchers. It also doesn't appeal to like the lowest level either. It just tells a simple story that comes off as propoganda.
yeah you're right thank you
i agree dkk if we are talking about lolita

we’re talking about the movie perfect days by wim wenders
unfortunately it very much distills the actual novel which yeah i mean that is typical of any film ever so it's not profound of me to say that

Does the status date disappearing on GW mean something?

Ahh nah was talking about the Japanese movie. And I would say how people are comfortable with ambiguity can be completely different. I feel as if when I see ambiguity I just say whatever, but when others see it they obsess over it to the point they gain anxiety and it is not healthy. Engaging with ambiguity is not something that should be encouraged.

"Engaging with ambiguity is not something that should be encouraged" is a crazy ass thing for a future lawyer to say. Bro that's your job

Nah my job is to write good clean consise law that removes ambiguity. If I run into a case where things are too ambiguous for me, it is because I have not developed a strong enough theory to work within.

These movies like wallow in ambiguity and embrace it as a desired element of the artistry but to me that it something that should be cut or if anything, the facts should be there to make a decision.
that Chicago interview was the best one I think I've ever had
