A woman was injured when the car she was driving was struck by a moving truck. The woman brings an action for personal injuries

against the moving company. The complaint alleges that the driver was drunk at the time of the accident and that the moving company was negligent in hiring him and permitting him to drive knowing that he had a drinking problem and convictions for drunk driving. The driver is called as a witness by the moving company and is expected to testify that he was not drunk at the time of the accident. Instead, the driver states on direct examination that he had had several beers as he drove his truck that evening and was under the influence of drugs when his truck struck the woman's car. The counsel for the moving company wants to confront the driver with his deposition testimony that he was completely sober at the time of the accident.
Will this evidence be permitted?
a. No, the statement is hearsay not within any recognized exception.
b. No, the moving company cannot impeach its own witness.
c. Yes, but it may be used only to impeach the driver.
d. Yes, it can be used to impeach the driver and as substantive evidence that the driver was sober.

fomenos

Answer:

b. blue lies

Explanation:

Blue lies are the ones between what we know as "black lies" (lie in the very sense of the world, anti-social behavior) and "white lies" (considered to be harmless and said in a good manner). It is for the good cause but usually said on the damage of someone or something. As such, blue lies are ones usually told by the police (hence the name) when they want to control the situation and the person in question, as the police can use broader concepts of what is moral and permitted

All vessels are divided into two categories:
stand on vessels: these are those that have the privilege to maintain their course and speed when operating near another vessel. 
Give way vessel: these are those vessels that are mandated to keep away from stand on vessels when the two are near each other. 
When two boats are operating near each other, the STAND ON VESSEL must maintain its course and speed while the give way vessel must take precautions and early actions to keep out of the way of the stand on vessel.

What will be the time in Japan
aev [14]

Answer:

14:08

Explanation:Note an important fact from Hank Wisniewski’s answer, which some misguided soul downvoted: the result is not what your teacher presumably wanted. I suspect he wanted you to calculate based on the longitudes (thus the multiples of 15°), and presumably he wanted you to say 16:00.

As Hank says, the longitudes are irrelevant. The Indian time zone (IST) has an offset from UTC of 5½ hours. Japan (JST) has an offset of 9 hours. Neither observe DST. So any part of Japan is always 3½ hours ahead of India, and the correct answer is 15:30.

India can also be at 97° E, and Japan can also be at 129° E. That makes no difference to the time in either place, but the simplistic longitude calculation would give you a time of 14:08 in this case
