A quick definition of further affiant sayeth naught:

Further affiant sayeth naught: This is an old-fashioned phrase that people used to add to legal documents to show that they had nothing else to say about the topic. It's like saying "I have nothing more to add." Even though some people still use it, it's not really necessary anymore and can be replaced with simpler language.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Further affiant sayeth naught (with variations also using the words “saith” and “not”) is a traditional phrase used in legal documents to indicate that the person has nothing else to say about the issue being discussed.

For example, if someone is giving a statement in court and they have finished answering all the questions, they may end their statement by saying "further affiant sayeth naught" to indicate that they have nothing else to add.

While this phrase is still sometimes used in American legal documents, it is considered outdated and is often replaced with more modern language in affidavits.

Overall, "further affiant sayeth naught" is a formal way of saying "that's all I have to say" in legal documents.

@manifestmoreadmissions: should i just put an earlier date on written notice? I was hoping to end like july 20th
OvertReconditeSpider
17:23
But id be ok with aug 1 too
manifestmoreadmissions
17:29
ok so to my understanding what happened was that you were talking in person and you were like "august 1" and then they were like "august 9" and you were like "august 9 would be the latest" but you havent actually sent them anything in writing right
OvertReconditeSpider
17:29
Yeah exactly
manifestmoreadmissions
17:29
i think its ok to be like "i wish i could help more but after reflecting i do think my last day should be august 1" if you legit feel super bad throw in that you can help come up with resources for new trainees
manifestmoreadmissions
17:30

OvertReconditeSpider
17:32
