Answer:

D). Yes, because the woman was served in State B.

Explanation:

According to the details provided, Yes, state B possesses the authority to operate the personal jurisdiction congruously as she was in the service of State B. As per the laws, <u>the court has the authority of personal jurisdiction over the accused in case he/she is willfully present there and set out in that state despite the fact that he/she doesn't have anyone known in that state</u>. Thus, <u>option D</u> is the correct answer due to the liberty of 'diverse jurisdiction' and the law stating that in case the defendant is voluntarily available and summoned by the law officer there.

olasank [31]

In order to answer this question, I will use two different perspectives of ethics: the consequentialist perspective, and the deontological perspective.

Consequentialism argues that the morality of an action lies with its consequences. This means that an action with bad consequences is an immoral action, and vice versa. In this case, killing the last remaining Redwood would not have any negative consequence on any being in the world, as no one benefits from it anymore. This means that the act is not immoral.

A deontological perspective states that there are principles that should be taken as rules, and which govern what is right and what is wrong. Therefore, rules and duties are central. For example, a principle might state that "all life is valuable." As the Redwood falls under the definition of life, killing it would be considered an immoral action.
