Question

Lawrence was planning a picnic for Saturday. The local news station predicted there would be no rain, but instead Lawrence's plans were ruined by thunderstorms that lasted all day long. Lawrence decides to file suit against the news station. What kind of court will hear Lawrence's case? A) civil court B) criminal court C) maritime court D) meteorological court

Answer 1

It is A

Lawrence's suit- even though it is very, very silly- would be heard in a civil court. These types of courts hear disputes between two parties, unlike criminal courts that hear cases involving people violating the law. This case, by the way, is based on an actual event. The person did not "win" their argument, either.

Answer 2

A) civil court
