This would be an example of an "Alford Plea". An Alford Plea is not the same as a guilty plea, as it is used by those who claim innocence but plead guilty for a lesser sentence. This is one of the many issues with American Law, as we are forcing those who may not be guilty into accepting a guilty deal to lessen their time.

I hope this helps! :)

jenyasd209 [6]

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

Suppose an operator of a weight scale certifies the weight of a good that is for sale. However, the accuracy of the scale used to weigh the good has not been checked in more than four years, even though the weight scale operator could have easily checked the accuracy of the scale. The scale gave an improper weight measurement that resulted in many problems with the shipping and sale of the product.

The above scenario is an example of what?

Answer:

Negligent misrepresentation

Explanation:

As you can see in the question above, the operators' neglect to adjust the scale properly to ensure the proper functioning and accuracy of weighing resulted in the exposure of incorrect information that hindered the transportation and sale of a certain product. This is a case of Negligent misrepresentation, since there was a display of a false statement due to imprudence, a negligence.
