Answer:

The only US state to call its political subdivisions "parishes" is Louisiana.

Explanation:

Louisiana is one of the fifty states that, together with Washington D.C., form the United States of America. Its capital is Baton Rouge and its most populous city, New Orleans. It is located in the southern region of the country. It limits to the north with Arkansas, to the east with the Mississippi and Pearl rivers, which separate it from Mississippi, to the south with the Gulf of Mexico (Atlantic Ocean) and to the west with Texas (most of this border forms the Sabine River). It was admitted to the Union on April 30, 1812, as state number 18.  Other important cities are Lafayette and Shreveport. Louisiana is the only state in the country whose political subdivisions are called parishes, which are local governments equivalent to the counties of the other states. The most populous parish is the parish of East Baton Rouge, and the largest by area is the parish of Plaquemines.

Triss [41]

I think the summary judgement would be inappropriate in this case

Summary judgement is entered by the court if the plaintiff does not have sufficient evidence that the defendants actually do what they're accused of before moving to trial.

On this case, There is a strong proof that peoples restaurant is aware of Hoag's alcoholism : <u>intoxicated</u>

This mean that sabo can proof that the bar know hoag is an alcoholic and had served enough amount to hoag to get him intoxicated.

This mean that Sabo's case is strong enough to be brought to the trial. keep in mind that  Sabo is unlikely to win the trial since the restaurant does not directly involved in the accident. but we can definitely say that summary judgement would be inappropriate in this case.

B. Close mindedness

Explanation:

Close mindedness simply means to have a mind that is not receptive to new ideas. To be closed-minded. Can mean disapproving, not willing to consider a different idea or opinions.

Close-mindedness will make you not to be able to listen to and understand what you are being told. This is basically because you already have an opinion concerning what you are being told and you are not ready to change it.

Because Dan is an atheist, he doesn't want to hear what anyone that mentions God have to say, hence he is close minded and that is a listening barrier.
