Comment by Christy Fagan on July 6, 2012 at 9:04: I write activity as TIVT so I do TIVTD as activities of daily living.

Comment by Gwen Brass on July 6, 2012 at 9:00: Activities of daily living - ALD

Ironic - I just had this in my last depo for the first time ever and now you ask about it. They also said ADLs which I would write as ALDS/ALDS.

Comment by Ann Medis on July 6, 2012 at 8:19: Debbie, Janet, Sam - thank you, thank you, thank you. They're in my dictionary!

Comment by Cindy Boedy on July 5, 2012 at 22:45: DEBBIE - AOFLD

Comment by Debbie Taggart on July 5, 2012 at 22:05: Does anyone have a brief for "activities of daily living"? I can't believe that I don't have a brief for that, and I just can't seem to cook one up. It's driving me crazy writing that out lately.

Comment by Janet on July 3, 2012 at 7:26: For misstates previous testimony, add a final F to the ones I just listed.

Comment by Janet on July 3, 2012 at 7:21: I usually hear it misstates prior testimony. Here are some for that:

M-RP - misstates prior testimony

MERP - misstates her prior testimony

MIRP - misstates his prior testimony

You could add the O for Objection, misstates...

MORP - Objection. Misstates prior testimony.

MOIRP - Objection. Misstates his prior testimony.

MOERP - Objection. Misstates her prior testimony.

Comment by Naola "Sam" Vaughn on July 3, 2012 at 6:18: I write SMEFT for misstates testimony and CHEFT for mischaracterizes testimony. I write objection separately and then the one stroke for what comes after it. Maybe I should start incorporating an asterisk or an O to indicate the word objection in there. But sometimes they just say object instead of objection.

Comment by LeAnne Law on July 2, 2012 at 19:45: Don't have anything, but how about MIM or MOIM for misstates testimony and MIFM or MOIFM for misstatement of testimony.

Comment by Janiece on July 2, 2012 at 18:59: How do you write "misstates testimony" or "misstatement of testimony" or do you have a something for "objection. Misstates testimony" or "objection. Misstatement of testimony."

Thanks
