papal law

Read a random definition: Indian law

A quick definition of papal law:

Papal law, also known as canon law, is a set of rules created by the Catholic Church to govern its members and institutions. It was developed over several centuries and is now codified in the Codex Juris Canonici. It covers a wide range of topics, from the administration of sacraments to the punishment of crimes. The influence of canon law on English law was significant, as many judges in the early Middle Ages were ecclesiastics familiar with its doctrines. In England, canon law is concerned with regulating the affairs of the Church of England.

A more thorough explanation:

Papal law, also known as canon law, is a body of western ecclesiastical law that was compiled from the 12th to 14th centuries. It has grown steadily since that time and is now codified in the Codex Juris Canonici of 1983, replacing that of 1918. It is a body of law developed within a particular religious tradition.

The Catholic Church has its own set of laws that govern its practices and beliefs. These laws are known as papal or canon law.
Canon law regulates the sacraments, such as baptism, confirmation, and marriage, as well as the administration of the Church.
Canon law also governs the behavior of clergy members and the rights of the laity.

These examples illustrate how papal law is a set of laws that govern the practices and beliefs of the Catholic Church. It regulates everything from the administration of the Church to the behavior of its members. It is a unique body of law that is specific to the Catholic Church and is separate from secular law.

@llama: your cycle confuses me, your stats are good and you applied early but all of those Rs? Is there anything weird about your app?

RasheedWallaceFan

12:53

RasheedWallaceFan

12:55

llama

12:55

@RasheedWallaceFan: Hi. Yes, I waited for April LSAT, put almost all apps (which were sent really early) so that basically most of my apps were reviewed In May. Shot myself in the foot for 155 -> 161 lmao. Would not recommend 10/10

llama

12:57

@RasheedWallaceFan: unironically, KSLS was my top choice, however by April LSAT their app had closed. It was like waiting to date ur dream partner, but waiting until you graduate uni, then by the time u graduate uni, your soul mate is already married with 2.4 kids and 1.6 dogs. Heartbreak.exe fr fr

No, I think what I will do is flip a coin: heds NKU, tails NEL|B what u guys think bout dat. Then once 1L - if good at LS, try to transfer, if bad at LS or one of my grandiose ideas/inventions are viable, drop out and pursue.

RasheedWallaceFan

13:10

Most schools will hold your application for the next test score to be released into your account as well. I was notified by an admissions director that if a decision is processed they will not retroactively go back for the new score even if higher

ParallelAgreeableOrangutan

13:34

I vote NEL-Boston so we can be friends :D

ParallelAgreeableOrangutan

13:34

But it says you withdrew?? :(

ParallelAgreeableOrangutan

13:41

@Bettercaulsaul: in my experience, there is often an option on the application for you to choose whether you'd like them to review your application as-is ASAP or hold it until your new score is released. but it probably varies by school—I just remember seeing that option on at least a few app forms

llama

2:21

While I am unsure of what option you are referring to, I personally just emailed each school and asked for them to hold my app pending my lsat score release.

llama
