The answer is: A. nominal

Example of a nominal damage would be when the plaintiff sue the defendant for insulting the plaintiff in a local restaurant. In such case, even if the defendant is proven to be wrong, there is no financial damage that the defendant cause to the plaintiff.

After hearing this type of cases, the court would order the defendant to give small amount of money to the plaintiff (around $1 - $2 ) as a form of recognition that defendant has did something wrong.

What were the findings of Professor Land and his colleagues' death penalty deterrence study of homicides in Texas from January 1
RSB [31]

Answer:

Modest short term deterrent, but will need mass executions to be effective

Explanation:

The question has already been answered but I guess you need an explanation.

In the deterrence theory by Professor Land and his colleagues, they assumes that offenders are rational, I.e. they know the law and the penalties attached to defaulting the law..

They're are three points to take note of in this study;

1. For execution to have a deterrent effect, then it means a huge number of execution must have taken place

2. Most of any deterrent effect of execution of homicide occurs immediately after the execution is made public

3. 5 to 10 homicides would deterred in a year if there are 10 to 20 executions using 0.5 homicides deterred on a monthly basis.
