Good Morning!

The Spoils system is a model for setting up civil offices where employees are replaced by individuals chosen by the party that wins the election. This type of system does not take into account the capacity of individuals, but their connection with the party. President Garfield was murdered by a civil servant just for this cause. When Arthur, the vice president, took over, he chose not to keep that system, opting to sign the Pendleton Act of 1883, which ensured the insertion of the merit-charge model.

Describe the Texas oil industry when oil was first discovered in Texas.
Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

The Texas oil boom, sometimes called the gusher age, was a period of dramatic change and economic growth in the U.S. state of Texas during the early 20th century that began with the discovery of a large petroleum reserve near Beaumont, Texas. The find was unprecedented in its size (worldwide) and ushered in an age of rapid regional development and industrialization that has few parallels in U.S. history. Texas quickly became one of the leading oil-producing states in the U.S., along with Oklahoma and California; soon the nation overtook the Russian Empire as the top producer of petroleum. By 1940 Texas had come to dominate U.S. production. Some historians even define the beginning of the world's Oil Age as the beginning of this era in Texas.[1]

Dovator [93]
Hello,
Upon reading, it seems the question is asking what the charge would be, in this case it would have to be C, civil court as breach of contract. The plaintiff didn't abide by the contract(if there was one), and the charges are his defense against the breach of contract charge. He was there to do a job and never completed it. The only problem with this is, we do not know if the plaintiff signed a contract with the defendant or not. [ If he did then it all depends on what the contract said and if he met those goals.] Most likely however this would appear in a civil court as a breach of contract.
