9.29.2025 (147 days until the Bar)

Meant to post this yesterday but forgot lol.

I think my goal for this blog is to be more of a journal to document my thoughts on doing this again.

Yesterday I wrapped up my Contracts outline, and honestly I feel like my understanding is much deeper this time around. I’m finally connecting the dots between subjects and seeing how they fit together. Damages is still tricky for me — maybe because it’s always at the end and by then my brain is just tired.

Today’s plan: really nail down damages, watch some of the Grossman videos on topics I’ve been struggling with, and get through 20 Emanuel questions. I’m feeling good overall, just a bit tired. It’s my first day balancing full-time work and studying, and my body definitely feels it. But I’m pushing through and staying positive — I get to take the Bar exam, so let’s keep going!

Types Of Cases In Civil Court

Civil courts handle a wide variety of cases involving numerous legal issues.  Very broadly, civil cases may involve such things as, for example,

Tort claims.  A "tort" is a wrongful act (sometimes called a "tortious" act), other than a breach of contract, that results in injury to someone's person, property, reputation, or the like, for which the injured person is entitled to compensation.  Cases involving claims for such things as personal injury, battery, negligence, defamation, medical malpractice, fraud, and many others, are all examples.

Breach of contract claims.  A breach of contract case typically results from a person's failure to perform some term of a contract, whether the contract is written or oral, without some legitimate legal excuse. Cases involving claims for such things as not completing a job, not paying in full or on time, failing to deliver goods sold or promised, and many others, are all examples.

Equitable claims.  An "equitable claim" asks the court to order a party to take some action or stop some action.  It may or may not be joined with a claim for monetary damages.  Cases where a party is seeking a temporary restraining order or injunction to stop something (perhaps the destruction of property, the improper transfer of land, the solicitation of a business' customers) are examples.

Landlord/tenant issues.  Civil courts handle disputes arising between landlords and tenants.  Cases where a landlord is trying to evict a tenant from a rental property or a tenant has moved out and is suing a landlord for the return of a security deposit are examples.
