Simple English definitions for legal terms

year

Read a random definition: assertive question

A quick definition of year:

Year: A year is a period of time that lasts for 12 months. It can start on January 1st and end on December 31st, which is called a calendar year. It can also start at any other point and last for 365 days, which is called a consecutive year.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A year is a period of time that can be measured in different ways.

  1. Calendar year: This is a period of twelve months that starts on January 1st and ends on December 31st. For example, 2022 is a calendar year.
  2. Consecutive 365-day period: This is a period of twelve months that can start at any point and lasts for 365 days. For example, if you were born on June 1st, 2005, your first year of life would be from June 1st, 2005 to May 31st, 2006.

Both of these definitions are used to measure time and keep track of important events.

For example, if you are a student, you might have a school year that starts in September and ends in June. This is a consecutive 365-day period that is divided into different terms or semesters. Another example is a fiscal year, which is a period of twelve months that a company or organization uses for accounting purposes.

I’m sure you’ll get good merit aid though. Look at Michigan’s 509 report. They’re very generous.
