At work, I process some documents from various state government agencies. One of the Great Lakes states (Minnesota, I think) uses abbreviations for their courts, such as "MUN" for municipal, "JUS" for justice, and so on. But I think the purpose of an abbreviation is lost--even countered--when it always appears with an explanation.
Every time this state prints the court abbreviation (at least on the papers I handle), it reads:
"Court: MUN ('MUN' = Municipal Court)"
Could they not just write it "Court: Municipal"?
About Me
- HawaiianShirts
- I think too much. Sometimes I feel as though I have a committee in my head, constantly deliberating about the things that are important to me and the unimportant things I see and hear and experience. If I had the time, I would write and edit books for a living. For now, I just do that on the side.
