Answer:

c. contributory negligence

Explanation:

Negligence occurs when a party does not do what is required of him in a given situation. It is being careless with one's responsibility.

Contributory negligence is when one does not show sufficient care for himself or is acts in such a way that contributes to an accident.

If a defendant is able to prove contributory negligence in the case of an accident the plaintiff will not be able to recover any damages.

For example if one enters a busy road when a green light for cars was on and there is an accident. He put himself in harm's way and will not be able to claim damages because he has contributory negligence

Rudik [331]

Answer:

Suzy is expected to be charged with attempted murder.

Explanation:

Suzy showed a strong intention to kill her husband, even though her plan failed and she was unable to actually kill her. For this reason, she should be charged with attempted murder and since there is direct evidence that she wanted to kill Bob, it is likely that she would be convicted, even without actually carrying out the crime.

This accusation would be prevalent, even if Suzi had not caused Bob any injuries or injuries.

What court case was the irresistible impulse test first used or created for?
Blababa [14]

Answer:

In the case of Parsons v. State, 1887, the Irresistible Impulse Test was first introduced.

Explanation:

The Court of Alabama stated that, although it would have been possible that the defendant had right from wrong, that he had "dismissed the power of choice between right and wrong" and that, "at a time when his free organization was destroyed," and that therefore, the alleged crime was so closely related, in relation to cause and effect, to such a mental disease that it has been the result of.

I hope this was understood very well, and as always, I am joyous to assist anyone at any time. ☺️
