Admitted

I traveled to Rochester for the admission ceremony today...

(e:kookcity2000) took me out to lunch at John's TexMex in the South Wedge and then he gave me a little tour. Thank you so much!! Gorgeous view from next to the big reservoir:

There was an overwhelming number of people in the room for the admission ceremony.

And there were all these people talking! The ceremony took about 45 minutes.

But now I'm a lawyer... officially an "Attorney and Counselor at Law" as you can see:

Back to studying.

1.5 estoppels

Partnership by estoppel - see corporation by estoppel.
Collateral estoppel. It's so boring i'm not bothering. You can google it.

So folks, I've got seven days left. I'm in a way better position than I was for the NYS bar exam but somehow I'm in a worse mental place, or at least it feels like it at the moment. The scoring is mysterious and the essays have more weight than they did in NYS... stress stress.

I'm asking you all to please write more posts and comments because they help me understand that this exam is not the only thing that exists in the world.

(e:springfaerie), I really hope Rhys is okay.

Tomorrow night, Mardi Gras.

Estoppels

Two more estoppels:

Paternity by estoppel Once you say you're the dad of the kid, you can't disclaim the kid even if blood tests say it isn't yours. But if biological dad steps in and says that he'll take responsibility for the kid, you're off the hook.

Corporation by estoppel if you're dealing with an entity that you believe is a corporation (which would have limited liability) and you find out that it was defectively formed or isn't a corporation at all, you can't assert that the owner is then personally liable. This is only true if the owner didn't know that the corporate formation was defective and was in good faith holding it out to be real.

No film noir

Our blinds aren't functional enough for the film noir setting (e:matthew) suggested.

Happy Valentine's Day!

I'm pretty anti-holiday in general but a certain person in my life loves holidays. These were waiting for me at the office this morning. Purple irises are my favorite flower. :-)

Word of the Day: Subjacent

Equivalent to adjacent but underneath (sub). Image Salon is subjacent to our office.

Legal context: "Subjacent support rights are the rights of surface owners to not have their land subside from the activities of the owners of underground rights." Coal mining is a good example: as the miners are removing coal, they have to make sure that the surface doesn't collapse. The relation of the subsurface to the surface is "subjacent".

Pretty shadows

(E:terry) was out at a client's all day while I sat in the office and studied, watching the street traffic and sunshine. We have pretty shadows from all our pretty plants. A client gave us the neat print of a main street painting.

Bees & Cell phones?

(e:Terry) says he logged 48 hours of work this week; I was there for most of it AND I studied. I'm so sick of this. I slept through most of yesterday - took a little nap that lasted about six hours. At least we went to beer club on Wednesday. Next one is 3/14 - heads up to (e:MrMike) and (e:Uncutsaniflush)! Get your tickets early at Mr. Goodbar. March features stouts.

Did anyone else see this news?

Why a mobile phone ring may make bees buzz off: Insects infuriated by handset signals

Signals from mobile phones could be partly to blame for the mysterious deaths of honeybees, new research shows.
In the first experiment of its kind, a bee expert placed a mobile phone underneath a hive and then carefully monitored the reaction of the workers.
The bees were able to tell when the handsets were making and receiving calls, and responded by making the high pitched squeaks that usually signal the start of swarming.
