Does the preamble to the Declaration of Independence indicate reasons why the new independent government might
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

The best possible answer in this case is B, but that is not entirely correct.

Explanation:

Any premise for overthrowing an independent does not come from the preamble to the Declaration of Independence, but rather the second body paragraph. The Preamble merely states that the 13 colonies had reason to remove themselves from Britannia rather than explain that there are reasons for nations and states to seceed from others.

which of the following is probably not necessary for the members of a grand jury to indict a criminal suspect?
Nesterboy [21]
Generally speaking, a grand jury may issue an indictment for a crime, also known as a "true bill," only if it finds, based upon the evidence that has been presented to it, that there is probable cause to believe that a crime has been committed by a criminal suspect. Unlike a petit jury, which resolves a particular civil or criminal case, a grand jury (typically having twelve to twenty-three members) serves as a group for a sustained period of time in all or many of the cases that come up in the jurisdiction, generally under the supervision of a federal U.S. attorney, a county district attorney, or a state attorney-general, and hears evidence ex parte (i.e. without suspect or person of interest involvement in the proceedings).

The federal government is required to use grand juries for all felonies, though not misdemeanors, by the Fifth Amendment to the United States Constitution. While all states in the U.S. currently have provisions for grand juries, only half of the states actually employ them and twenty-two require their use, to varying extents. The modern trend is to use an adversarial preliminary hearing before a trial court judge, rather than grand jury, in the screening role of determining whether there is evidence establishing probable cause that a defendant committed a serious felony before that defendant is required to go to trial and risk a conviction on those charges.

Some states have "civil grand juries," "investigating grand juries," or the equivalent, to oversee and investigate the conduct of government institutions, in addition to dealing with criminal indictments.

Hopefully this helps!

Which type of law determines which actions are considered a crime?
algol [13]

Answer:

<em>Criminal law</em>, as distinguished from civil law, is a system of laws concerned with punishment of individuals who commit crimes. Thus, where in a civil case two individuals dispute their rights, a criminal prosecution involves the government deciding whether to punish an individual for either an act or an omission.

Hope it helps!
