The person against whom a lawsuit is brought or who is charged with a violation of the law is called a <u>Defendant</u>.

A lawsuit is an action brought by one or more parties in a civil court of law against another party. Only a limited number of laws from long ago that are still in force include the phrase "suit in law." The term "lawsuit" refers to a civil action in which the plaintiff asks the court for a legal or equitable remedy.

In criminal cases, "The People," or the State acting on behalf of the victim, is often designated as the plaintiff. The person(s) being charged of a crime or violation of a law is/are the defendant.

A bank statement has a beginning balance of $5,491.56, total debits of $1,130.00, and an ending balance of $5,329.53. What is th
Darina [25.2K]

The difference between the beginning balance and the ending balance is the Credit of $162.03

Explanation:

The beginning balance of a bank statement is $5491.56

Total debits are $1130. In real life banking, debits mean deductions. So $1130 will be the deductions or withdrawals made through the account.  

So Beginning balance less withdrawals or debits = $5491.56-1130= $4361.56

Now Ending balance is $5329.53. This means that some amount has been credited or deposited in the account which takes the balance from $4361.56 to $5329.53.

So this can be found out as follow:

$5329.53 - $4361.56 = $967.97.  

So the difference between the beginning and the ending balance is $5491.56-$5329.53=$162.03, which can also be calculated as:

1130-967.97=162.03 Dollars.
