viatorial privilege

Read a random definition: federal common law

A quick definition of viatorial privilege:

Viatorial privilege is a special legal right that allows a person to avoid attending court in person and testifying. It is one of many types of privileges, which are exceptions to a duty or legal requirement. Other types of privileges include attorney-client privilege, doctor-patient privilege, and marital privilege. Privileges can protect confidential information and allow individuals to avoid self-incrimination.

A more thorough explanation:

Viatorial privilege is a type of legal right or exemption granted to a person or group of people that allows them to avoid a duty. It is a form of privilege that overrides a person's obligation to attend court in person and testify. For example, if a witness is unable to attend court due to illness or other reasons, they may be granted viatorial privilege to testify remotely.

One example of viatorial privilege is when a witness is allowed to testify via video conference instead of appearing in person. This can be granted if the witness is unable to travel to the court due to health or other reasons. Another example is when a person is allowed to submit written testimony instead of appearing in court.

Viatorial privilege is important because it allows people to fulfill their legal obligations without having to physically appear in court. This can be especially important for people who are unable to travel or who have other obligations that prevent them from appearing in person.

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
