Answer:

C The ruling was defective because the jury's vote was not unanimous.

Explanation:

In most court cases, there is need for the jury's decision to be totally unanimous before the Judge could be able to pass a verdict. lack of unanimous decision would cast aspersion on the whole case.

In the case of the defendant, he or she will appeal the case based on the fact that one jury didn't agree with the other juries regarding to the court case he or she had with the transportation company.

Six months after the Munich Conference, Hitler annexed
jasenka [17]

Answer: Czechoslovakia.

Explanation:

The Munich Conference between the leaders of Britain, France, Italy, and Germany was held on September 29-30, 1938. To obtain a promise of peace from a belligerent Hitler, they agreed to the German annexation of the Sudetenland, a border area of Czechoslovakia with an ethnic German majority.

Six months later, on March 15, 1939, Hitler broke said agreement by moving against the Czechoslovak state. Bohemia and Moravia became a German protectorate occupied by German troops, Slovakia was turned into an independent state, and Hungary took the Transcarpathian Ukraine.

How well did andrew jackson promote democracy?
galben [10]
"I would give him a score of about 5 out of 10, which was a vast improvement over John Q. Adams and his cronies. If you were a poor, white male, he was your guy. He greatly democratized the process of elections in that era and was our first grassroots president. However, Jackson usually did what Jackson wanted to do, even if it meant alienating many of the people who got him elected. He did not side with Southerners during the nullification crisis and was prepared to use troops against South Carolina to enforce a law that most Southerners hated. He blatantly ignored John Marshall’s decision in Worcester v. Georgia, but an argument could be made here that he was acting in favor of democracy in this case, as most white Southerners probably wanted the Cherokee moved off of their land. He was a very complex and fascinating guy, but his critics called him King Andrew for a reason." -Robert Marshall
