Res Gestae

From Res Gestae, vol. 1, no. 1:
Res Gestae, as a rule of evidence; applies to expressions made at the time an act occurs. In short, it is an extemporaneous, as distinguished from a delibertive, expression. Bouvier says it is one "where there is neither time nor motive for misrepresentation or invention. It precludes the idea of deliberate design."

Our name sets the policies which will govern this publication. We shall on all matters speak frankly. We do not, however, intend to be a Don Quixote. Our first loyalty is always to our school and to the welfare of its students. Our expressions will always be in keeping with the dignity of the profession of law. We hope never to plead guilty to being sophomorish; nor to being so sophisticated as to be boring.
