Answer:

The grocery store is the defendant.

Explanation:

The grocery store, like every other store which is opened to the public, has an obligation to ensure that people are safe whenever they visit for shopping. If, due to unsafe conditions in the grocery store, Adrianna (the plaintiff) slips, falls and gets injured, and lays an injury claim against the grocery store in a court of law, the grocery store is the defendant because it is being sued by Adrianna, or Adrianna is seeking civil relief from the grocery store which is liable for her injuries.

Answer: The Grocery store is the defendant

Explanation: A defendant is someone, company or an organisation being sued or accused of comiting a crime and is charged to court to defend his or herself, in the case of an organization or company being charged to court needs to defend and absorb itself of all crime.

In the case of Adrianna, the grocery store being the defendant needs to defend itself in court against Adrianna's claims and prove that it's not guilty of her claims. If found guilty the grocery store will pay for damages, her hospital bills and injuries the fall might have caused.

In One paragraph, explain three (3) significance of Independence Day in Jamaica. Ensure that your paragraph is well structured
Masja [62]

Answer:

The island became an imperial colony in 1509 when Spain conquered the Indigenous Arawak people. In 1655, British forces took the island with hardly a fight, and the British Empire claimed it. Over the years, escaped slaves joined Indigenous survivors in the mountains, forming a society known as Maroons. Maroons won a war against British forces (1728–1740) but lost a second war (1795–1796). In the 1800s, slavery was abolished and Jamaicans gained suffrage, although the British still held power. Early in the 20th century, Marcus Garvey promoted Black nationalism and became the most notable Black leader of his day. During the Great Depression, workers protested inequality and fought the authorities in Jamaica and other Caribbean colonies. In 1943, labor leader Alexander Bustamante won an electoral victory and established a new, more liberal constitution. After World War II, Jamaican leaders developed the government structure to prepare for independence. In 1962, Bustamante’s party won the election and he became premier. That same year, the UK Parliament officially granted Jamaica independence, and Bustamante became the independent country’s first prime minister.
