full settlement

Read a random definition: postdate

A quick definition of full settlement:

Full settlement refers to a complete agreement between two parties to end a dispute or lawsuit. It can also refer to the conveyance of property to beneficiaries in a way that differs from what they would receive as heirs. In some cases, a court may be involved in the settlement process, but it can also be reached outside of court. A structured settlement is one where the defendant agrees to pay periodic sums to the plaintiff for a specified time. Viatical settlements are transactions where a terminally or chronically ill person sells the benefits of a life-insurance policy to a third party in return for a lump-sum cash payment. The establishment of a legal residence is also referred to as settlement.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Full settlement refers to the settlement and release of all pending claims between the parties. It is a legal agreement that ends a dispute or lawsuit.

For example, if two parties are involved in a legal dispute, they may reach a full settlement agreement to resolve the issue. This agreement would release both parties from any further legal action related to the dispute.

Full settlement can also refer to the complete execution of an estate by the executor. This means that all the assets and debts of the estate have been distributed and settled according to the wishes of the deceased.

Another example of full settlement is in structured settlements, which are common in personal injury and product liability cases. In a structured settlement, the defendant agrees to pay periodic sums to the plaintiff for a specified time. This type of settlement may have advantages over a lump-sum cash payment, as it can serve particular purposes that a cash settlement could not reach.

Overall, full settlement is a legal agreement that brings an end to a dispute or lawsuit, or the complete execution of an estate by the executor.

@PremiumFrequentCrane Is right.
You'll forever have those days where shit ain't getting done. Just a matter of how you handle them. (IE using Chatgpt to draft a motion for leave like meeeee)

look at my lawyer dawg... im going to jail
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.
@NosyBeagle: just makes me think of vanillamace

real quick question. How much do early applications matter? I have super strong softs and an ok LSAT score of 160. GPA wasn't great at 3.33. I applied in late march and I have been rejected everywhere so far
16:58
late march is way too late
16:58
early doesn’t matter but before thanksgiving matters
ronniedoeslaw

Have you used the LSAC search for schools link? It helps a lot letting you know the probability of acceptance.
I mean early early might be overblown but dont apply if you are applying in march
