A quick definition of sight draft:

A sight draft is a written order that tells someone to pay a certain amount of money to another person. It can be used like a check and is payable on demand or when presented to the person who wrote it. It's like asking someone to give you money right away.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A sight draft is an unconditional written order signed by one person (the drawer) directing another person (the drawee or payor) to pay a certain sum of money on demand or at a definite time to a third person (the payee) or to bearer. It is payable on the bearer's demand or on proper presentment to the drawer.

Example: A check is the most common example of a sight draft. When you write a check, you are directing your bank to pay a certain amount of money to the person or company you are paying. The check is payable on demand, which means the person or company can cash it right away.

Explanation: A sight draft is a type of financial instrument that allows for immediate payment upon presentation. It is commonly used in business transactions, such as when a company needs to pay a supplier for goods or services. The supplier can present a sight draft to the company, which must pay the amount specified on the draft. This ensures that the supplier receives payment quickly and efficiently.

@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

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

late march is way too late

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
