A quick definition of withdrawing a juror:

Term: WITHDRAWING A JUROR

Definition: Withdrawing a juror means removing a person who was chosen to decide a court case. This is usually done to delay the case or to end it if the parties involved have settled or if the judge thinks the case should not continue.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Withdrawing a juror refers to the act of removing a juror from a trial. This is usually done to obtain a continuance in a case or, in some cases, to end the case altogether. For example, a judge may recommend withdrawing a juror if the case is not properly before the court or if the parties are too anxious to proceed to a verdict.

Example: In a criminal trial, one of the jurors may become ill or have a family emergency that requires them to leave the trial. In this case, the judge may decide to withdraw the juror and replace them with an alternate juror to ensure that the trial can continue without delay.

Example: In a civil trial, the parties may reach a settlement agreement before the trial is completed. In this case, the judge may recommend withdrawing the jurors and ending the trial since the case has been resolved outside of court.

These examples illustrate how withdrawing a juror can be used to ensure that a trial proceeds fairly and efficiently. Whether it is due to unforeseen circumstances or a settlement agreement, withdrawing a juror can help to ensure that justice is served in a timely manner.

So all the D1 athletes will get into a T-14. What else is new?
@TheAdoptedOne: that is called "Dean Poker Night" lol
@ClockworkBlue: I feel like most people could train for the 40 for the same amount of time as they do the LSAT and get close to sub 5 which would be equivalent to a 167+

Imagine if election night was run by an adcom? Like, "yep, we could get the results Friday, or June 2025."
imagine if it was like Berkley applications

I have no idea why people have so much beef w berkeley's app
I've been reading a bit about "herding," which is this idea that pollsters are making the race look tied so they look right no matter who wins.

Like... it's a more involved app but you don't have to do it? They're clearly trying to have some self-selection go on
I 100% agree with the self selection, I also am not even close to touching the medians there. However I think the huge PS plus the video and especially the very specific criteria for the why Berkeley essay is pretty crazy
I'm curious, how bold can one be in those videos? Is it worth making a satirical Jason Statham-action short if the adcoms have no sense of humor?
