Darden hearing

Read a random definition: counterpart

A quick definition of Darden hearing:

A Darden hearing is a legal proceeding where a judge decides whether or not to reveal the identity of an informant in a criminal case. This is done when there is not enough evidence to establish probable cause, except for the testimony of the arresting officer about the informant's communication. The defense attorney may not be present during the hearing, but they can submit questions for the judge to ask.

Dare means to give or transfer something, like property or an obligation. It can also mean to appoint a representative.

Dare ad remanentiam means to transfer something, like a remainder, in fee or forever.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A Darden hearing is a legal proceeding held to determine whether the identity of an informant is relevant to establishing probable cause in a criminal case. It is an ex parte proceeding, meaning that only the judge and the prosecution are present, and the defense attorney may be excluded. The defense attorney can submit questions to be used by the judge in the examination. The hearing is held when there is insufficient evidence to establish probable cause apart from the arresting officer's testimony about an informant's communications.

Example: In a drug trafficking case, the police officer testifies that he received a tip from an informant about the defendant's involvement in the drug trade. The defense attorney requests a Darden hearing to determine the identity of the informant and whether their testimony is relevant to establishing probable cause. The judge may question the informant to determine their credibility and the reliability of their information.

This example illustrates how a Darden hearing can be used to determine the relevance of an informant's identity in establishing probable cause in a criminal case.

@NemoPropheta: mine was on a chill team so i had a good time, but apple works like a bunch of little companies that report to the same ppl so its a little isolating if you're not in the same office/don't go out much. i didn't take RO to intern again

@Sex-Drive: we have entirely different living standards if you think 60k is "hardly anything to live off of:"
i make around that in a hcol area and feel like im balling out while saving over 20% of my income
@Sex-Drive: Seconding what Windy's saying. I live in a LCOL and I'm fully able to support myself and my family on my paycheck alone. $60k in a HCOL while single was living check to check.

if I want to transfer to nyu is it better to go to washu or cardozo
(also why does nyu accept so many transfers from brooklyn lmao, what other t125 will let you transfer that high)
15:07
transferring is grades dependent so "better" is a little weird to define - a lot of ppl don't want to give up schollys/networks for ranking purposes. that being said im going to dozo and hoping for a nyu transfer lol
15:08
i think they take a lot from brooklyn just by the nature of being a nyc school. 3 out of 15 transfers out of cardozo went to nyu last year which is technically a good sign but you'd consider that the rate of ppl at washu wanting to move to nyc and pay sticker after a year is probably lower than the rate of ppl at nyc schools who want to
15:09
i dont really know how important it is to be median vs 75th of transfer gpa but id imagine keeping a B+/A- average is pretty hard in 1L and easier said than done
