Answer:

an applicable Good Samaritan statute.

Explanation:

Good Samaritan law protects those that act to help someone the perceive to be injured, ill, in peril, or incapacitated.

This law was put in place to protect bystanders that want to help a person that is injured. They will not be held liable in case of wrongful death or unintentional injury.

So the suit against Elise for negligence by the Forest Trail Marathon participant is not enforceable as she is immune from liability under the good samaritan statute.
