and it all boils down to…

JUSTICE = PROCESS

PROCESS = JUSTICE

I realized yesterday that after five days of Civil Procedure, the above four words plus the two symbols represented the sum total of notes I’ve taken during class. In case you’re curious, that’s 28 letters, or 30 characters total if you count the equal signs.

That’s all. *sigh*

Apparently most CivPro classes start with jurisdiction issues. I know this because the other sections at Ninja School of Law are working on jurisdiction issues. Also, my blawger friends are working on jurisdiction issues. Everybody in the whole entire world knows about Pennoyer v. Neff and International Shoe, and all I know is… well, see above.

Oh, wait! There is one more thing I learned, I just forgot to write it down.

*ahem*

DUE PROCESS IS FLEXIBLE

That’s another 20 characters. Whoa.

I feel so left out. And a little panicky.

    Savor this anticipation of Pennoyer v. Neff. It disappears 5 words into the case. Even though it’s not actually that bad.

    I think it’s a bad idea to compare your notes or progress to other students in your class. It’s a really bad idea to compare your notes or progress to students in other classes or other schools.

    It will come. And I’m betting it comes faster to those who let it come rather than those who want to type everything that is said.

    Civ pro was my favorite first semester class, and my worst grade. But don’t fight it, it all gets better right after thanksgiving!
