Answer:

C). Inadmissible, because the report is hearsay not within any exception.

Explanation:

As per the given details, the court must find the report 'inadmissible, and the key reason is that the report is hearsay which does not come under any exception.' <u>The court is permitted to accept a report of witness' statement only if the statement is made under oath or witness himself/herself confirms the statement in the court and the court is satisfied that the statement is reliable</u>. The other options are incorrect as they either misrepresent the way in which statement was acquired(option D) or due to inappropriately taken(without oath) i.e. stated in option A. While option B is false as the public records cannot be considered as business records and thereby, not reliable. Thus, <u>option C</u> is the correct answer.

KatRina [158]

Answer:

Hope this helps!

Explanation:

The central idea of the article is that feudalism sorts people into social classes, but has also created inequality, poverty, violence, and other factors.  It has later on died in Europe and Japan, but it still lingers to this day.  One detail is that most of the people were like slaves and low class citizens, as they needed to serve their king, emperor, or their leader.  They would be treated poorly and will only be given a small amount of food, not money.  Another detail supporting this is that children's fates were decided by how their parents are.  If they were poor, they will remain that way when they get older.  If they were in a higher class, they will remain there and hold more power than those in the lower class.  

im pretty sure I messed up, but i really hope this helps

take care
