A quick definition of blood alcohol content:

Definition: Blood alcohol content (BAC) is the amount of alcohol in a person's bloodstream, measured as a percentage. It is used to determine if someone is legally intoxicated, especially when driving. In many states, a BAC of .08% or higher can result in charges for driving under the influence or driving while intoxicated.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Blood alcohol content (BAC) is the amount of alcohol present in a person's bloodstream, expressed as a percentage. It is used to determine whether a person is legally intoxicated, especially under a driving-while-intoxicated law. In many states, a BAC of .08% is enough to charge a person with an offense.

Example: If a person has a BAC of .08%, it means that 0.08% of their blood is made up of alcohol. This can impair their ability to drive safely and make good decisions.

Explanation: BAC is a measure of how much alcohol is in a person's system. It is important to know because it can help determine if someone is too impaired to drive or operate machinery safely. A BAC of .08% is the legal limit in many states, meaning that if a person is caught driving with a BAC at or above this level, they can be charged with a DUI or DWI.

Nah, I don't use it to do my case law. Just the actual motion drafting.

For example, I was trying to get the right language in a Motion for Sanctions (tl;dr slip and fall case, defense counsel played nothing but games – IE never sending records despite it being mandatory to trcp, producing never before seen records DURING A DEPO) and just talked to ChatGPT about his behavior to provide background to help with the drafting for the procedural paragraph.

late march is way too late
