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.

<span>India is developing into an open-market economy, yet traces of its past autarkic policies remain. Economic liberalization measures, including industrial deregulation, privatization of state-owned enterprises, and reduced controls on foreign trade and investment, began in the early 1990s and have served to accelerate the country's growth, which averaged under 7% per year since 1997. India's diverse economy encompasses traditional village farming, modern agriculture, handicrafts, a wide range of modern industries, and a multitude of services. Slightly more than half of the work force is in agriculture, but services are the major source of economic growth, accounting for nearly two-thirds of India's output, with less than one-third of its labor force. India has capitalized on its large educated English-speaking population to become a major exporter of information technology services, business outsourcing services, and software workers. In 2010, the Indian economy rebounded robustly from the global financial crisis - in large part because of strong domestic demand - and growth exceeded 8% year-on-year in real terms. However, India's economic growth began slowing in 2011 because of a slowdown in government spending and a decline in investment, caused by investor pessimism about the government's commitment to further economic reforms and about the global situation. High international crude prices have exacerbated the government's fuel subsidy expenditures, contributing to a higher fiscal deficit and a worsening current account deficit.</span>

<span>The BRICS or the Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa development impacted the United States in terms of economics and labor hence there is a dominance of the Chinese economy that its role in trade relations makes the BRICS much more a China-with-partners group than a union of equal members.For this reason the trade between them is now less than 320 bln dollars a year and declining and their trade with the US and EU is 6.5 times higher while China’s trade with the rest of the world is 12.5 times higher and the billateral trade between China and South Korea is almost as large as that between BRICS nations and it competed in third markets through economic influence in Africa to international aircraft and military equipment markets and BRICS countries compete with one another in many areas such as in clothing. Lastly there is a diversity of cultures where phases of economic development, ideologies, definitions of poverty and other cultural differences mean BRICS members lack common understandings about priorities that are necessary for productive sharing experiences. </span>
