Criminal Justice - A few True/False Questions

#1 False

#2 True

#3 True

#4 False

lol, and why? I'm as good of a guesser as anyone.

im still unsure about 1 and 4

you going to be?

a. a lawyer
b. a court secretary
c. a police officer
d. locked up

1. because it is a challenge for any reason whatsoever. No explanation is needed.
2. Because that is the definition of double jeopardy. You cannot be retried for the same criminal offense if you are found innocent.
3. Talking to your allies is always a good thing.
4. You find a plan that works you stick to it. It will also have judicial history and presedence in this case.

e. student with 3 hours until his assignment is due...
but I am going into business down the road.

5) Because of it's emphasis on tailoring punishment for each individual prisoner, indeterminate sentencing is often linked with the rehabilitative model.

a. True
b. False

That's the last question...

1 bump....

Damn, I figured that was the next question..

Ok

#1 -

The questin in and of itself is a bit confusing, as it seems as tho it was a questions asked, after you were given information prior to the question..

But based just on the question, I said False:

The defense & prosecution have the right to preemptory challenge when choosing a jury. The defendant would not have to prove that it was racially motivated, unless he felt that such was the case..


#2 -

The protection against double jeopardy -- being tried more than once for the same crime -- stems from a short phrase in the 5th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution: "...nor shall any person be subject for the same offense to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb."

#3 -

Just makes sense. any relationship will get better with communication. The prosecutors & police are looking for the same outcome from the capture and prosection of a bad guy. The better they communicate, the better the relationship will be.

#4 -

I changed my mind, I'd have to say that is probably true... There are cases where in one state or county, a persons "crime" may be determined to be either a felony, or not based on that the DA feels, if he got laid the night before, if it's close to re-election time, I feel they do take all that into account when deciding how to charge someone.

FINAL QUESTION, I PROMISE:

6) Approximately 1 out of every four states is consistently behind on their court dockets.

a. True
b. False

so 5 and 6 and im done

I appreciate your help.

#6 is A for sure.

?????? ????? ????? ??????

5) Because of it's emphasis on tailoring punishment for each individual prisoner, indeterminate sentencing is often linked with the rehabilitative model.

a. True

That's the last question...
