Answer:

In a common law jurisdiction, the property that the defendant is guilty of larceny is the lawnmower.

Explanation:

Larceny or theft is the intentional possession of someone's property for the purpose of permanently depriving the owner of its use.  The property may be the person's identity, intellectual property, services, and personal property.  Though the automobile was totally ruined, the neighbor did not initially intend to dispossess the owner of the car.  But he intended to dispossess the owner of the lawnmower since he was about to trade it in for a new one, which will belong to him and not the former owner.

A paragraph discussing which pieces of evidence, if any, could have class
NemiM [27]

Answer:

Evidence

Explanation:

In general, all forms of evidence have class or individual characteristics. Class characteristics are not unique to a particular object but place the particular bit of evidence into a group of objects. Individual characteristics narrow down the evidence to a single, individual source.

In general, all forms of evidence have class or individual characteristics. Class characteristics are not unique to a particular object but place the particular bit of evidence into a group of objects. Individual characteristics narrow down the evidence to a single, individual source.The type of handgun with which a victim is shot is a class characteristic. For example, if the bullet came from a .38 caliber handgun, every .38 caliber handgun on the planet is the possible murder weapon. However, finding a suspect’s fingerprint (an individual characteristic) on a .38 caliber handgun suggests that this .38, to the exclusion of all others, was the murder weapon. This is particularly true if the killing bullet can also be matched to this particular .38.

If the suspect has type B blood, he remains a suspect. From there, DNA (an individual characteristic) from the suspect and DNA from the blood evidence are tested to determine conclusively whether they match. If, however, the suspect’s blood is type A, he then is excluded as the source of the blood
