defect of parties

Read a random definition: Blue Book

A quick definition of defect of parties:

Defect of Parties: When someone files a lawsuit but forgets to include all the important people who should be involved, it's called a defect of parties. This means that the case can't be resolved properly because not everyone who needs to be there is there. It's like trying to play a game with only half the players - it just doesn't work right.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Defect of parties refers to a mistake made in a lawsuit where all necessary parties are not included.

Example: If a person is involved in a car accident and sues the driver of the other car, but fails to include the owner of the car, who is also responsible for the accident, this is a defect of parties.

Explanation: In this example, the owner of the car is an indispensable party because they share responsibility for the accident. If they are not included in the lawsuit, the case cannot be resolved fairly. This is why it is important to ensure all necessary parties are included in a lawsuit to avoid a defect of parties.

No, I think what I will do is flip a coin: heds NKU, tails NEL|B what u guys think bout dat. Then once 1L - if good at LS, try to transfer, if bad at LS or one of my grandiose ideas/inventions are viable, drop out and pursue.

Most schools will hold your application for the next test score to be released into your account as well. I was notified by an admissions director that if a decision is processed they will not retroactively go back for the new score even if higher

@Bettercaulsaul: in my experience, there is often an option on the application for you to choose whether you'd like them to review your application as-is ASAP or hold it until your new score is released. but it probably varies by school—I just remember seeing that option on at least a few app forms

While I am unsure of what option you are referring to, I personally just emailed each school and asked for them to hold my app pending my lsat score release.

hey y'all so im gonna be honest im completely new to all this, i kinda bullshitted and took the LSAT and i have no clue what my odds are of getting into schools. 163 LSAT, 3.17 GPA, and a double major in undergrad i may write about in an addendum
Based on the list I see you made on your profile, you will need to make significant LSAT improvement for those schools to be contenders. Your primary focus should probably be working to get your LSAT practice tests up to a number you are happy with before you retest, and then test until you get a score you like. Don't rush an application cycle or apply late since those will hurt your odds of getting into your school as a splitter. Good luck!
oh that was literally just random stuff i dont know how this works
thank you so much!
im retaking in 4 days, and maybe again in august, and i was gonna apply to see what i got, and if i didnt like it i was going to wait till next cycle and work on improving my GPA

Ruminating on how if you have a job you love it’s really chic and charming to refuse to retire but if you have a job you hate but can’t retire you are a cautionary tale on why you need to start saving at an early age
