A quick definition of mania transitoria:

Mania transitoria is a type of insanity that only lasts for a short time, usually while a person is committing a crime. It can also be called temporary insanity. This means that the person is not responsible for their actions because they were not in their right mind at the time. Emotional insanity is a similar type of insanity where a person's emotions or passions cause them to act in a way that is not rational. Insanity is a legal term that means a person is not mentally capable of being held responsible for their actions.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Mania transitoria is a type of insanity that occurs for a brief period while committing a criminal act. It is also known as temporary insanity.

For example, if someone commits a crime while experiencing a sudden and intense emotional outburst, they may be considered to have mania transitoria. This type of insanity is different from emotional insanity, which is caused by a prolonged period of emotional disturbance.

It is important to note that insanity is a legal term, not a medical one. It refers to a mental disorder that is severe enough to prevent a person from having legal capacity and excuses them from criminal or civil responsibility.

Overall, mania transitoria is a specific type of temporary insanity that occurs during the commission of a criminal act.

@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.
