Remand

Read a random definition: international private law

A quick definition of Remand:

Remand: When something is remanded, it means it is sent back. This usually happens when a higher court changes a decision made by a lower court and sends the case back to be looked at again. It can also happen when a person is sent back to jail to wait for their trial.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: To send something back. This usually refers to reversing a decision made by a lower court or sending a prisoner back into custody to await trial.

Example 1: If a person is found guilty in a lower court and appeals the decision, the higher court may remand the case back to the lower court for reconsideration.

Example 2: A prisoner who is awaiting trial may be released on bail, but if they violate the terms of their release, they may be remanded back into custody until their trial.

Explanation: In both examples, the word "remand" is used to describe sending something back. In the first example, the case is sent back to the lower court for reconsideration. In the second example, the prisoner is sent back into custody. Both illustrate the idea of returning something to its previous state or location.

@RasheedWallaceFan: yeah for some reason SMU isnt listed on any of the rankings lists. Been that way all year
@NemoPropheta: you only got another 40+ years of it!
@PremiumFrequentCrane Is right.
You'll forever have those days where shit ain't getting done. Just a matter of how you handle them. (IE using Chatgpt to draft a motion for leave like meeeee)

look at my lawyer dawg... im going to jail
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.
@NosyBeagle: just makes me think of vanillamace

LSAT isn’t horrible you just have to lock in really hard for 2 hours and expect to be exhausted the rest of the day mentally

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
16:58
late march is way too late
16:58
early doesn’t matter but before thanksgiving matters

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
does anyone know how many questions they typically ask for the UT recorded interview
