Law Vocab 101

I know some of you out there will scoff, but I can’t have been alone in pausing over and over again to ask myself “what which is plaintiff and which is defendant?” in the first few months of law school. This flashcard is a cheat sheet for any new 1Ls working through the basics of the language of law. The way those cases are written certainly won’t do you any favors, but you can at least get a handle on the basics.

Illustration shows a "plaintiff" on the left and a "defendant" on the right. The plaintiff is saying, "You broke the law and it hurt me!" The defendant is saying, "Did not, did not!"
