Which of the following might hinder Insect life and prevent an accurate estimation of time of death?
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

Option C. weather conditions

Explanation:

Insects are organisms that can be used to determine the time of death of a corpse.

The use of insects to determine the time of death is a study called Forensic Entomology.

An example of an insect found around a corpse is the blowfly. It is one of the first organisms that is observed around a fresh corpse because it is present within first few minutes of death.

One of the factors or conditions that can hinder or prevents the accurate determination of time of death as well as insect life is weather conditions.

A cold weather condition has been observed to slow down the development of insects on the corpse.

Very harsh and dry weather conditions has been observed to hinder the life and prevent the development of insects on the corpses because these dry weather conditions dry out all the moisture from the corpse making it very difficult for the insects to thrive on the corpse.

Moist and warm weather conditions have been observed to favour the growth of these organisms on the corpse.

Should Congress have the power to refuse to vote on a justice nominee? Why or why not?
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

It is the duty of Congress to have hearings in order to confirm a Supreme Court Justice nominee (as stated in the Constitution). This exclusive power rests on the U.S. Senate. The consensus, however, may be different and may vote against a nominee. Political parties within the Senate generally get in the way of who will vote and who won't, and vice-versa.

Explanation:

For example, Merrick Garland (former President Obama's nominee) was not given a hearing. Furthermore, Congress failed to perform the duties to have a hearing and decide whether to vote or deny a nominee. This is an example of how they refused to even vote on him. This is not the way government should operate.

On January 1, 2009, a comedian from State A filed a diversity action in State A federal court against an actor from State B. The
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

Yes.

Under Civil and Pretrial Procedures, the comedian may add the additional intentional tort claim as a supplemental pleading to her already existing lawsuit against the actor.  Moreover, the supplemental pleading is very timely.

Explanation:

When the comedian sues the actor for an intentional tort,  she needs to show that the actor, who caused the harm to the car, acted willfully and knowingly.  That means the actor deliberately caused the damage to the car in an act of recklessness.   Since the supplemental pleading for intentional tort is timely, the comedian simply needs to demonstrate that the actor caused the damage to the car on purpose, knowing fully well that his act would damage the car or cause some harm.
