What is a “hung jury?”

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

When there are insufficient jurors voting one way or the other to deliver either a guilty or not guilty verdict, the jury is known as a “hung jury” or it might be said that jurors are “deadlocked”. The judge may direct them to deliberate further, usually no more than once or twice.

Proportional representation, electoral system that seeks to create a representative body that reflects the overall distribution of public support for each political party. Where majority or plurality systems effectively reward strong parties and penalize weak ones by providing the representation of a whole constituency to a single candidate who may have received fewer than half of the votes cast (as is the case, for example, in the United States), proportional representation ensures minority groups a measure of representation proportionate to their electoral support. Systems of proportional representation have been adopted in many countries, including Belgium, Denmark, Finland, Greece, Hungary, Israel, Italy, Luxembourg, Norway, Russia, Spain, Sweden, and Switzerland.

Why boy fight with girl is conwardice but girl fight with boy is not conwardice?​

Answers

Answer:

Boys should never hit a girl unless it's self defense. Not just because their a boy. But even when it is self defence you should never hit a girl. Boys have more strength than girls SOMETIMES. And they don't know how much they are actually hurting them. If a girl hits a boy than it once again SOMETIMES may hurt. But a girl isn't naturally built like a boy so the hits may not hurt as bad. Anyways a boy should never hit a girl unless it's self defense and even then they should not hit. They should have another girl handle it. Unless it happens more than once. But if you hit a girl and they get mad at you they can say a lot of things that can get you in trouble. So you should never take matters into your own hands. Try to let someone else (another girl maybe) handle it. As I said girls can get you in trouble for something you never did. Or  something. Boys should never hit a girl though.

Do you support or oppose the death penalty? Give me couple sentences and why.

Answers

Answer:

Well I do support the death penalty. Even thought it might sound harsh, I still belive in the fair law. Like what they did in the Persian empire, an eye for an eye. If you kill someone, sure you won’t be affected that much but their families won’t see you sitting in a cell for 2-3 life sentences and eventually being set free as a “justice is served” moment. In fact if you killed someone, you would be put to death. It also sets an example for other people to not convict this crime to prevent future murders or whatever violent and unlawful things that could be comed up with.

yeah i like the death penalty too tbh. i think it’s very reasonable in many cases

Por qué la empatía y el asertividad son habilidades de la comunicación que permiten una mejor adaptación social?

Answers

Explanation:

Los seres humanos son seres sociales, por lo que existe la necesidad de desarrollar y mejorar las habilidades de comunicación para que haya una mejor adaptación social en cada entorno que los individuos necesitan para socializar, como en su comunidad local y en el entorno laboral.

Hay dos características que pueden ayudar en esta adaptación social, que es la empatía y la asertividad, que son habilidades que se complementan entre saber escuchar y saber hablar, porque una persona empática es capaz de comprender al otro emocional y cognitivamente, poniéndose en su lugar otro individuo para comprender y escuchar sin juzgar, pero generando identificación y aceptación. Una persona asertiva, en cambio, es aquella que defiende sus opiniones y se comunica de forma clara, directa y objetiva, pero no de forma agresiva, sino a través de una postura firme que genera seriedad y transparencia en la comunicación.

'Victimhood is not an objective assessment of harm
caused to an individual or group. It is a socially
constructed concept which reflects a particular view of
the world'. Critically discuss this statement within the
context of the post-9/11 War on Terror.

Answers

Answer:

This concept is used by European countries.

Explanation:

The concept of Victimhood adopted by the European countries especially United States of America to invade Afghanistan and control the Asian region. The 9/11 incident is caused by the America itself to get a sympathy vote and a reason just like the incident of pearl harbor to invade Afghanistan to control the region. The main aim of these European countries to control the spreading of communism and not to control the terrorist so this Victimhood helps many countries to get their goals.

How have voting rights expanded over time? (think about the groups of people and the 6% we originally started at)

Answers

Answer:

Over time, voting rights have been expanding in a notorious and fair way. Thus, initially, only white men with high purchasing power of legal age could exercise their right to vote. Subsequently, the economic requirement was abolished, allowing all white men to exercise this right.

After the Civil War, the northern states of the country allowed African Americans the right to vote, while the southern states exercised segregation over them. During the late 1800s and early 1900s, women, through feminist movements, obtained the right to participate in elections. Finally, African Americans consolidated their right to vote after the Voting Rights Act of 1965 was passed.

Answers

Answer:

1. We need a lawyer because they can defend us in front of the Jury if we do something bad.

2. We don't have to buy from those kinds of people and those kinds of stores, but it is often thought that they have good quality and everything which includes that.

3. Well, if you don't pay your electricity bill, they're going to turn the electricity off. If you don't pay your water bill your water will get turned off. And if you don't pay your loans your house might be put to sale because you have to give money in one way or another, and if you don't have any money you might end up in prison.

4. Because it's safer to keep your money in a bank instead of your pocket. They can take your materialistic things, but cannot take the money from the bank unless they know your password (which you should only know and should never write anywhere).

5. As I said in the previous one, someone may come across your password which can result in all your money being taken unless you block your bank account and report it to the police. There are many different scenarios about this situation and the procedure is long (I think) trying to get a new card with a bank account.

Former Major League Baseball player and radio game announcer Bob Uecker sought an injunction against Ann Ladd, alleging a six- or seven-year pattern of harassment. Ladd, who claimed to be a devoted fan, was charged with felony stalking. An injunction was issued against her bothering Uecker, but the stalking charge was dropped when she agreed to cooperate. Later, Ladd sued Uecker for defamation, claiming that Uecker defamed her in the material he filed in support of his application for the injunction. The trial court dismissed her suit, and she appealed. What do you think the outcome of her appeal was and why

Answers

Answer:

The court did not consider Ladd's appeal.

Explanation:

Quand Ladd agreed to cooperate with Uecker's claims about her disrespectful and abusive behavior towards him, she accepted that his charges were real and that they could harm her legally. Therefore, it is negligent on her part to appeal against Uecker, since she accepted his accusations. This means that the court does not accept the appeal issued, as it shows a behavior of bad faith and with exploratory characteristics.

Answer:

Transformation.

Explanation:

Supply chain management can be defined as the effective and efficient management of the flow of goods and services as well as all of the production processes involved in the transformation of raw materials into finished products that meet the insatiable want and need of the consumers. Generally, the supply chain management involves all the activities associated with planning, execution and supply of finished goods and services to the consumers.

The fundamental principle of supply chain management is the complete collaboration between multiple firms.
