A defendant charged with driving while intoxicated pleaded not guilty and insisted on a trial. Right before the trial began, he

fired his attorney and decided to defend himself. At one point during opening arguments, the defendant began to act like a cat, meowing and chasing an imaginary squirrel out of the courtroom. If no one else raises the issue of the defendant’s competency to stand trial, what is the responsibility of the trial judge here?

Answer: The trial judge must raise the issue of competence because the Constitution obligates her to do so.

Explanation:

When a trial starts, it must be verified that the offender has the psychological competence to understand why he is being accused, or to respond to the crime that is accused. Therefore, in the case of suspecting that the accused has psychological problems, it is the responsibility of the judge to request a psychological and psychiatric evaluation before continuing with the trial.

I hope this information can help you.

djverab [1.8K]

According to Yerkes-Dodson law if you had an important presentation coming up, you would want to be a bit nervous/aroused to perform your best.

According to this law there is a relationship between performance and arousal. The law goes to say that sometimes, people are able to do their best when they are a bit nervous.

But according to him, this would only work till a certain point because when the nervousness gets to be too much it could lower performance.

This is best applicable to athletes or some one who is waiting to write an exam.

Why federal government more expensive than unitary government ​
Lostsunrise [7]

It isn’t. (well, it isn’t supposed to be)

But then again, in the US we no longer have a Federal Government, but a pseudo Federal Government, that acts like, and is treated like, a unitarian government.

Over the last 80 to 100 years, and especially in the last 50, the separation between State and Federal duties, has all but been eliminated by Progressive ideology.

The powers delegated by the proposed Constitution to the federal government are few and defined. Those which are to remain in the State governments are numerous and indefinite. The former will be exercised principally on external objects, as war, peace, negotiation, and foreign commerce; with which last the power of taxation will, for the most part, be connected.

The powers reserved to the several States will extend to all the objects which, in the ordinary course of affairs, concern the lives, liberties, and properties of the people, and the internal order, improvement, and prosperity of the State.Federalist No 45

Because of the corruption of the Commerce Clause in Wickard v Filburn, and the General Welfare Clause, in Helvering v Davis, the Federal Government is now involved in the objects, that were supposed to be left to the States, and this has caused its budget to balloon out of control.
