Answer:

The doctrine of contributory negligence is followed in most states is false.

Explanation:

Contributory negligence is a doctrine of common law that if a person was injured in part due to his/her own negligence, that is his/her negligence contributed to the accident, the injured party would not be entitled to collect any damages (money) from another party who supposedly caused the accident.

And historically, contributory negligence was the rule in all states, leading to harsh results. Many states now developed and adopted comparative negligence laws. Today, the jurisdictions that still use contributory negligence are few.

When the u. S. Congress passes federal statutes, states are not obligated to follow them. True or false?.

GrogVix [38]

This statement is false. Acts, usually referred to as statutes in U.S., are laws adopted by a legislature. Once the legislature passed a federal statute, all states must implement and obey them.

The laws passed by U.S. Congress—typically with the President's assent—known as federal statutes have three forms to disseminate:

First release as a slip law or paginated pamphlets

Arranged according to law number

Inclusion of a codification in the US Code or earlier versions

All states are obligated to follow these forms. Federal slip laws, session laws, and codified laws must also be accessible to U.S. people through print and electronic means.
