Read a random definition: aid or abet

A quick definition of writ of replevin:

A writ of replevin is a legal document that allows someone to reclaim personal property that has been wrongfully taken or detained by someone else. This can be done through a court action where the person seeking the property provides security and holds onto the property until the court decides who rightfully owns it. Replevin can also refer to the writ obtained from a court that authorizes the retaking of personal property that has been wrongfully taken or detained. It is important to note that replevin only applies to personal property, and the plaintiff must be entitled to immediate possession of the property at the time of the suit.

A more thorough explanation:

A writ of replevin is a legal action that allows a person to recover personal property that has been wrongfully taken or detained by someone else. This can be done by obtaining a court order that authorizes the retaking of the property.

For example, if someone steals your car and refuses to return it, you can file a writ of replevin to get your car back. You would need to provide evidence that the car belongs to you and that the other person has no right to keep it.

Another example is if a landlord wrongfully withholds a tenant's security deposit. The tenant can file a writ of replevin to recover the deposit.

Overall, a writ of replevin is a legal tool that allows individuals to recover personal property that has been wrongfully taken or detained by someone else.

@syddak: Oof tough spot. Congrats on the As. Did either indicate either via email/mail that they would be following up with aid, and if so, did they provide a time frame? It may be acceptable to email them and indicate seat deposits are fast approaching and you are curious if you can expect further info (aid) from the school to aid u in ur decision..
