special trial setting

Read a random definition: current liability

A quick definition of special trial setting:

A special trial setting is when a court sets a specific date and time for a trial or hearing. This can happen because a party requested it or because the court wants to give priority to certain cases, like older cases or cases involving someone over the age of 70. It's like scheduling an important appointment on your calendar.

A more thorough explanation:

A special trial setting is a date and time established by a court for a trial or hearing that is given priority over other cases on the court's calendar. This can be requested by a party or ordered by the court itself. It is usually reserved for older cases or cases that are given priority by law.

For example, some jurisdictions may give a special trial setting for cases involving a party over the age of 70. This means that the trial for that case will be scheduled before other cases on the court's calendar.

Another example of a special trial setting is when a case involves a matter of public importance, such as a high-profile criminal case or a case that could set a legal precedent. In these cases, the court may give a special trial setting to ensure that the case is heard as soon as possible.

Overall, a special trial setting is a way for the court to prioritize certain cases over others based on their importance or urgency.

@GatorNation: I don't know that school all that well. But it's ranked really low and usually rankings don't matter much if you're just trying to practice. But I'd be careful and look on reddit. Cause some of these schools can be highkey predatory.

Like some schools have a conditional scholarship that they take away from you at the drop of a hat and no faculty support in 1L so a lot of people get fucked. I know someone who got screwed by Western New England. Not saying that it is just that I wouldn't think of making it my go-to without digging into it.

Ok thank you!
10:35
check the 509 report, should show bar passage rate, employment data, and percent of students that retained their scholarship after 1L
