physical hazard

Read a random definition: morandae solutionis causa

A quick definition of physical hazard:

A physical hazard is something that can cause harm or danger because of its physical properties. This can include things like the location of a building, the materials it's made of, or the things that are stored inside. Physical hazards are different from other types of hazards, like moral hazards which have to do with people's attitudes or behaviors. Examples of physical hazards include fire, sharp objects, and toxic chemicals.

A more thorough explanation:

A physical hazard is a type of danger that originates from the material world. This can include things like location, structure, occupancy, and exposure. Examples of physical hazards include:

  • A construction site with heavy machinery and dangerous equipment
  • A chemical plant with toxic substances that can cause harm if not handled properly
  • A building with poor structural integrity that could collapse

These examples illustrate how physical hazards can pose a risk to people's safety and well-being. They show that physical hazards can be found in various settings, from workplaces to public spaces, and can affect different aspects of our lives.

Nah, I don't use it to do my case law. Just the actual motion drafting.
For example, I was trying to get the right language in a Motion for Sanctions (tl;dr slip and fall case, defense counsel played nothing but games – IE never sending records despite it being mandatory to trcp, producing never before seen records DURING A DEPO) and just talked to ChatGPT about his behavior to provide background to help with the drafting for the procedural paragraph.

real quick question. How much do early applications matter? I have super strong softs and an ok LSAT score of 160. GPA wasn't great at 3.33. I applied in late march and I have been rejected everywhere so far

Have you used the LSAC search for schools link? It helps a lot letting you know the probability of acceptance.
I mean early early might be overblown but dont apply if you are applying in march

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.
