This statement is true.

<em>A contingency fee </em>is a method of paying someone ( for example a lawyer or a scientist ,) in which no money is paid until a particular aim is achieved. In other words, the lawyer will only get paid if he wins the case.

Mark is a forensic scientist. To agree to be compensated for his work through contingency fees presents him<em> with a potential conflict of interest and work ethics.</em> This should be avoided in his profession and it is marked as a guiding principle to be obeyed.

Mark would have a financial incentive to provide a forensic opinion that is favorable to his client ( only then he would be paid for his work). This is seen as a<em> threat to impartiality,</em> the forensic may use the evidence in a way that favors the positive outcome of the case. This is strictly prohibited as all medical ( forensic ) opinions should<em> be based on facts only </em>and not to be influenced by any kind of reward or personal gain obtained through them.

1. being free means being able to run your own life and make your own decisions. being free also means taking responsibility and facing the consequences, positive or negative, of your actions. people who are free get to decide how they want to spend their short time on earth, but people who aren’t free do not have the right to make that choice.
2. what being free to me is being able to pick the people i want to spend my life with and choosing what i want to do when i want to do it. nothing gets in the way of my freedom because i am my own person and know what my freedoms are.
