A quick definition of vadiatio:

Term: Vadiatio

Definition: Vadiatio is a Latin term used in history to describe a type of wager. It was often used in legal battles, where two parties would make a bet on the outcome of a trial. There were two types of vadiatio: vadiatio duelli, which meant a wager of battle, and vadiatio legis, which meant a wager of law. Vadiatio duelli was a trial by combat, where the two parties would fight to determine the winner. Vadiatio legis was a wager of law, where the two parties would make a bet on the outcome of a legal case.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Vadiatio is a Latin term used in law to refer to a wager or bet. It was commonly used in the past to describe two specific types of bets:

  1. Vadiatio duelli: A wager of battle, also known as trial by combat. This was a medieval practice where two parties would fight each other to settle a dispute.
  2. Vadiatio legis: A wager of law, where a person would swear an oath to prove their innocence or guilt in a legal matter.

For example, in the Middle Ages, if two knights had a disagreement over land ownership, they might settle the matter through vadiatio duelli, by fighting each other with swords. Similarly, in vadiatio legis, a person might swear an oath to prove their innocence in a criminal trial.

These examples illustrate how vadiatio was used in the past to settle disputes through physical or verbal means, rather than relying on evidence or legal arguments.

It is shitty that was a pattern of behavior but I am glad someone is finally standing up for themselves. Like I can be a pretty rigid butthole guy when it comes to getting stuff but a complete lack of empathy or situational awareness shown by the school and their staff is mind blowing. When I was talking about it in the office they all thought I was lying cause it sounds so crazy.

Idk if any of you watch UFC but one time interim heavyweight champ Tom Aspinall won a fight and said on the mic afterwards “if you feel scared to do something, that’s a pretty good sign you should just go fucking do it” and I believe that applies very much to people wondering if they should R&R. Sure you can but why not just see what happens now?
