A defendant was on trial for having committed a murder in 1995. Taking the stand, the defendant denied being present in the city

where the murder occurred at the time of the killing. The prosecution sought to admit into evidence a copy of the local newspaper published the day after the killing. The newspaper contained an article in which the defendant was quoted as stating that he had heard shots on the day of the murder from inside his apartment. The defendant objected to the introduction of this evidence. Should the judge admit the newspaper article into evidence

This is based on who is telling the truth. The defendant denys being in the city at the time of the murder, but then a local newspaper states that he heard gunshots from inside his apartment the day of the murder (which would be impossible if he wasn't in the city at the same of the murder). There could also be a chance that the newspaper could be lying mainly because the defendant  objected that the evidence was correct. In this case, the judge should take this into consideration especially when a local newpaper article announced that the defendant heard gunshots after saying that he was never in the city. So I would say, the newspaper article could be evidence to prove that the defendant is responsible for the murder.

Holt and collins decide to have their dispute arbitrated by corrales. What will not be a result of the arbitration?
Savatey [412]

Answer:

If Holt and Collins retain the right to a Class action.

Explanation:

Arbitration is a method of resolving disputes outside of court. The Parties involved in the case refer their disputes to an arbitrator who will making a decision after reviewing the evidence and listening to the parties.

Arbitration clauses can be mandatory or voluntary, and the arbitrator's decision may be binding or nonbinding. (binding means you are not going to court again, but would abide by the decisions if the arbitrator).

Furthermore, the Arbitration is a legal technique used by the parties involved in a dispute to resolve the disputes outside the courts, the parties refer the disputes to one or more persons called either the "arbitrators", "arbiters" or "arbitral tribunal", by whose decision (the "award") they agree to be bound.

Then A "class action" lawsuit or the

"mass tort litigation" is one in which a group of people with the same or similar injuries caused by the same product or action sue the defendant as a group. It can also be called the "multi-district litigation".

If Holt and Collins decide to retain the right to a Class action, it will definitely not be the result of an arbitration.

Which situation best illustrates the economic concept of opportunity cost?
kati45 [8]

Answer:

B. A business gives its employees a raise, so it cannot afford to buy any TV ads.

Explanation:

Opportunity cost also known as the alternative forgone, can be defined as the value, profit or benefits given up by an individual or organization in order to choose or acquire something deemed significant at the time.

Simply stated, it is the cost of not enjoying the benefits, profits or value associated with the alternative forgone or best alternative choice available.

For instance, if you decide to invest resources such as money in a paying your employees (workers), your opportunity cost would be the benefits like increased sales you could have earned if you had invested the same amount of resources in advertising your business.

Hence, the situation which best illustrates the economic concept of opportunity is when, a business gives its employees a raise, so it cannot afford to buy any TV ads.
