Simple English definitions for legal terms

nonskip person

Read a random definition: super statuto versus servantes et laboratores

A quick definition of nonskip person:

A nonskip person is someone who is not subject to the generation-skipping transfer tax. This tax applies to certain transfers of property made to skip persons, who are typically grandchildren or other individuals who are at least two generations younger than the transferor. A nonskip person is simply someone who does not fall into this category and is not subject to the tax.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A nonskip person is someone who is not subject to the generation-skipping transfer tax. This tax is imposed on certain transfers of property made to skip persons, who are typically grandchildren or other individuals who are at least two generations younger than the transferor.

Example: If a grandparent leaves money to their child, who then leaves it to their own child (the grandparent's grandchild), the grandchild would be considered a skip person for purposes of the generation-skipping transfer tax. However, if the grandparent leaves money to their child, who then leaves it to a friend or charity, that friend or charity would be considered a nonskip person.

This definition is important for tax planning purposes, as it helps individuals and their advisors determine whether certain transfers of property will be subject to the generation-skipping transfer tax.

Hello. To the gooners that have been on this site for 2+ years, you might remember me, or you might not. I was a high school freshman back then asking for advice (obvi pretty dumb at that age), and now I am a junior going to apply to colleges this summer. I had a few questions for the T14 law students here.
13:01
1. Does major matter in law school admissions? I want to go into corporate and/or IP law, so I'm thinking about majoring in Finance at some schools and Political Science at others, depending on which is stronger. I want a good job outlook in case I change my mind in the process, I'm pretty young after all. 2. To the T14 KJD admits: Give me your best advice. I want to get into T14 law schools, and similar to college admissions into undergrad, I wish I knew a lot of stuff earlier. What are some things you can tell me that can increase my chances of admission significantly?
13:03
3. How important is the undergrad program you go into? Will it help you in law school admissions and/or job placement and networking?
13:05
4. My most important question: Think back to when you were 17 (my age). If there was something you wish you knew then, what would it be? This can be anything. I don't have many people around me that go into law (everyone either goes into business or CS/engineering), so your advice is valued and highly-regarded by me.
@ParaamShinde: If you are going to go to Law School, find out and make sure you attend an undergraduate school that is on a 4.3 grade scale, not a 4.0. Regardless of what LSAC says, they do NOT weight this scale to account for schools that do not give A+ grades and thus, disadvantages applicants who are on a 4.0 scale. A very overlooked pro tip that makes a huge difference, at least today. Good luck.

@ParaamShinde: Finance and PSCI will not help with IP Law. They barely help with business. Undergrad will not help very much. LSAT & GPA are everything. Job placement/networking maybe so. Advice for my 17 year old self? Just keep doing what you feel like doing. Any advice would be wasted on my 17 year old self. Listen to instinct over modern logic more. Be more blunt with people. Hang out with better people. Realize sooner that factors like class matter in society no matter how many people say we are all equal.

@Girafffffffffffffe: Can always read classic political theory. Should always start with The Apology, go on to The Birds, The Republic. If you want some alt-right stuff like these guys are suggesting, The Turner Diaries & Day of the Rope by Devon Stack. Day of the Rope is a meme though.
20:04
@HardHittingTraderDog: Niche advice, thanks! Do you know schools to "avoid" going to if I want a high GPA? Im okay with studying crazy for LSAT, but getting a high GPA is more of a worry for me.
20:05
@Ur-: Thank you for the advice!
20:09
I really wanna go to either HLS, SLS, or YLS. I know you might roll your eyes at this, but I wish I used my opportunities and knew much more about undergrad college admissions to get into top schools, and I feel like college can give me a fresh start.
yale is very easy for marking

@Ur-: what is altright about any of the books I mentioned?
21:25
I didn’t tell him to read The Prince or Mein Kampf or 48 laws of power

Id even go so far as to say that The Stranger is inherently anti fascist

Hey guys, I am currently between offers for Pace and Hofstra- I was offered virtually the same amount, but both are conditional. Hofstra- 40k a year if I stay in top 50% of class Pace- 41k a year if I stay above a 2.3 GPA What would be the better choice in your opinion? I visited Hofstra and it was ok, I wasn't wowed. Didn't have time to visit Pace before my seat deposit is due. Please give advice!
