abolition

Read a random definition: equity insolvency

A quick definition of abolition:

Abolition means to get rid of something completely. It can refer to ending a law or practice, like when slavery was abolished in the United States. It can also mean to cancel a criminal accusation or punishment. In some cases, a prosecutor may decide to stop pursuing a case and enter a nolle prosequi, which means they will not prosecute the case any further. This is not the same as an acquittal or pardon, but it does mean the accused will not face further legal action for that particular case.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Abolition refers to the act of abolishing or ending something, such as a law or practice. It can also refer to the state of being annulled or abrogated. In the United States, it is often associated with the legal termination of slavery.

Examples:

  • The abolition of slavery in the United States was a long and difficult process that involved many people fighting for change.
  • The abolition of the death penalty is a controversial topic that is debated in many countries around the world.
  • The abolition of child labor laws would be a step backwards for human rights and social justice.

These examples illustrate how abolition can refer to the ending of a specific law or practice, and how it can be associated with social justice and human rights.

abolish | abominable and detestable crime against nature

@RasheedWallaceFan: take your list and research the city, campus, tuition, bar passage, employment by sector, etc.!!! it might help you narrow down your school choices
also don't pay much attention to the people on reddit. there's genuinely good advice but there's a ton of people who are just energy vampires (average reddit user)

The real reason why lawyers are alchoholics... Because there is so much of a wait time between tests and scores.

Are the 7sage app requirements as far as essays go accurate? I would love to spend my summer preparing my applications but I dont want to waste time writing essays that wont be there. Is there a way to know what will be on the apps, or when those apps will be available to view? Or should I just focus on my PS and DS for now?
@RasheedWallaceFan: they were accurate for me, but school requirements change year to year and there's no way for anyone to know for sure
