Kathy, a fashion model, witnessed a motor vehicle accident but did not stop because she was late for her pedicure and simply did

n't want to get involved. Had she stopped, she could have saved the life of Tom, who was thrown from the car and landed in a water filled ditch, without danger to herself. When Tom's widow heads that Kathy could have easily saved Tom's life but chose to ignore the situation, she sued Kathy. The state has no "Good Samaritan" laws or duty to assist laws, but such cases have been brought in the past. Which of the following will the court apply when making a decision in this case?

Answer:

common law

Explanation:

When good samaritan law does not apply in a certain state, the common law tends to dictate that a person cannot be held liable to the negative results of an accident as long as that person is not directly involved or hindering the helping process.

Even though Kathy's behavior is morally wrong, she's most likely wouldn't receive legal punishment. That's being said,  She might receive social punishment (such as backlash from other people who knows about the case)

nadezda [96]

in his theory of language acquisition, Chomsky argues that language acquisition is an innate ability tied to the structure of the brain. It is TRUE.

According to this view of language acquisition, children learn language because they want to interact with their environment and the outside world. As a result, language depends on and develops through social contact. According to the hypothesis, since our need to communicate led to the development of language, our choice of language is influenced by our social circles and the people we wish to interact. In essence, the theory contends that how quickly and well we learn to talk is greatly influenced by the environment we are exposed to as children. For instance, a baby raised by a single father will first learn the words "dada" or "baba" before learning the term "mama."
