Read a random definition: National treatment

A quick definition of law reporter:

A law reporter is a book that contains written accounts of court proceedings and judicial decisions. These books can be official, meaning they are published by the government, or unofficial, meaning they are published by a private company. They are used by lawyers and judges to research past cases and make decisions in current cases. Think of it like a history book for the law!

A more thorough explanation:

A law reporter is a published volume of judicial decisions made by a particular court or group of courts. These decisions are first printed in temporary paperback volumes and then printed in hardbound reporter volumes. Law reports may be either official, published by a government entity, or unofficial, published by a private publisher. Court citations frequently include the names of both the official and unofficial reports.

  • The U.S. Reports is an example of a law reporter that contains published decisions made by the United States Supreme Court.
  • When a court makes a decision, it is recorded and published in a law reporter for future reference and use by lawyers and judges.

These examples illustrate how law reporters are used to document and publish judicial decisions made by courts. They serve as a reference for lawyers and judges to use in future cases and provide a historical record of legal decisions.

@GatorNation: I don't know that school all that well. But it's ranked really low and usually rankings don't matter much if you're just trying to practice. But I'd be careful and look on reddit. Cause some of these schools can be highkey predatory.

Like some schools have a conditional scholarship that they take away from you at the drop of a hat and no faculty support in 1L so a lot of people get fucked. I know someone who got screwed by Western New England. Not saying that it is just that I wouldn't think of making it my go-to without digging into it.

Ok thank you!

check the 509 report, should show bar passage rate, employment data, and percent of students that retained their scholarship after 1L
