Which of the following are trial procedures? Select all that apply.
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

The correct options are;

  • Jury selection
  • Opening statements
  • grand jury indictment

Explanation:

The above-selected options relate to the order of trial procedure in a Court of law. I will just give a summary of what transpires during the trial of a case.

Firstly, in a criminal case, before an accused person is brought to court, a charge is filed by the prosecution counsel against him. The defense counsel, on the other hand, prepares an application in defense and this is usually by way of a motion paper. A person is called an accused person because according to law, he is presumed innocent until proven guilty.

The charge is then read to him in the language he understands and his plea will be taken. He is to either plead guilty or not guilty. Depending on different jurisdictions, the jury is usually selected by way of summons. After this, Counsel on both sides (Prosecution and defense counsel) will begin with an opening speech by briefly summarizing the facts of the case, arguments they wish to canvass and the evidence that will be adduced to prove the case.

Furthermore, Examination-in-chief, Cross-examination, and Re-examination of witnesses on both sides will begin. After this, the case will be given to the jury to decide the case on its merits.

Conflict theorists note that Select one: a. people of a lower social class are more likely to enjoy good health. b. people of a
dangina [55]

Answer:    C. People of a higher social class are more likely to receive good medical care

Explanation:  This is the theory given by Karl Marx, the creator of communist ideology, according to which, in capitalist relations and in a market economy, there is a constant conflict over limited resources. Such a social order, according to Marx, is based on the exploitation of workers by the capitalists and thus gaining profit, and such an order can only be maintained by the domination of the ruling class. This is accomplished through a demonstration of force and power because such a system is not natural, according to Marx.

In such a system, where members of the upper classes have capital, power and influence, they will surely have privilege in all areas of life, even in medical care, that is, they are more likely to receive a good medical care. It is likely that members of the upper classes will also live longer because they have many other benefits than medical care, which all contribute to a better quality of life. But if we have to opt for one answer, it is certain that medical care is what conflicts theory advocates as a benefit to the upper classes. According to Marx, the upper classes, that is, the owners of the capital, are the ones who determine the laws, have influence on the structures of government, so all state benefits will surely go to them, and not to everyone, as envisioned in the socialist system.
