yeah, the rule against perpetuities is just stickin' it to the man so other folks can get land. I wonder if that would work on the exam?

Fighting over water rights and dealing with wills and what not isn't my idea of a good time. That and as a general rule, I don't like lawyers, and I really didn't want to be self-loathing.

I liked property, it was taught by the hottest professor at the time.

However, I could care less learning about how badly the English screwed over their serfs a thousand years ago.

Mine is taught be an old crusty former college basketball player (Villanova) who wears bow ties and a hanky in his suit coat breast pocket. Seriously.

Look, I'm all for limiting the power of a "dead hand" from controlling the disposition of land long after its dead and buried, but the damnable thing about RAP is it seems most jurisdictions now take this "wait and see" approach effectively eviscerating it. So why in the name of all that's holy do I have to learn a doctrine which has had its guts cut-out? Oh wait, I know. Tradition!

Sometimes I wonder how we ever got of rid powdered wigs in court.

Ain't no such animal in Louisiana. But the civil law has this thing called prohibited substitution which has the same aim. If I recall, it's simpler than RAP, but then again, I don't recall......
I did hear some common law folk say that, on the bar exam, you should skip the RAP questions and move on.

'cept for "imminent" domain, zoning ordinances, pesky real covenants and equitable servitudes.;)

yes. Property.

I made a C. Didn't understand jack****. Carve up the bologna any damn way you want.

Then, Property 2. I made a C. Didn't understand jack****.

Then, I took DET. I made a C. Didn't understand jack****. The prof did say that I should be in comedy instead of law. I am told that he read my evaluation of him to all of his classes, forever. I'm responsible for the "polyester encased Iowan who goes through material like Hitler through Poland" line.

Then, my last semester in law school, I needed another class. All that was available was an advanced property class. I figure, I'll get a C and coast my way in. Prof suicides himself and we get an adjunct. Short story: I had to work my @ss off...

for a C.


The end.
