Carl Levitt @amalgamatedthought.bsky.social · 13/08/2026The overwhelming majority of residential tenants in NJ are protected by the Anti-Eviction Act N.J.S.A. 2a:18-61.1. Protected tenants can only be evicted for one of the causes set out in the act. Notably the end of a lease term is *not* a cause for eviction. 120 0
Carl Levitt @amalgamatedthought.bsky.social · 29/07/2026I have been out of law school for too long to really have opinions on the exam structure. I will note that law school grades exist to separate the student population into the "gets a big law interview" and "doesn't" (That cut off / percentage depends on school rank). Everything else does not matter. 000 0

Carl Levitt @amalgamatedthought.bsky.social · 14/05/2026All strategy games suffer from this in some form or another.

Carl Levitt @amalgamatedthought.bsky.social · 16/03/2026In my experience (8 years of L/T law, 5 of them at my local legal services & a big shiny award), small landlords are impulsive.
