    True or False. If you are a juvenile charged with a crime it is called juvenile delinquency.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Juvenile delinquency refers to the illegal or antisocial behavior committed by individuals who are considered minors under the age of 18. When a juvenile is charged with a crime, it is indeed referred to as juvenile delinquency. This term distinguishes the criminal behavior of minors from that of adults, as the legal system recognizes the need for different approaches and considerations when dealing with juvenile offenders.

    Aggravated arson refers to intentionally setting fire to a dwelling or building with the intent to cause harm to individuals or property.

Therefore, burning a person's house is indeed an example of aggravated arson.

    • Felony

    • Misdemeanor

    Correct Answer
    A. Misdemeanor
    Explanation
    In most jurisdictions, the legal drinking age is 21. Since Amber is only 17, she is underage and attempting to buy alcohol illegally. This act would typically be considered a misdemeanor, which is a less serious offense compared to a felony.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The Supreme Court of the United States is indeed the final interpreter of the federal Constitution. As the highest court in the land, the Supreme Court has the authority to interpret the Constitution and make decisions on its constitutionality. This means that its interpretations of the Constitution are binding and cannot be overruled by any other court. The Supreme Court plays a crucial role in shaping the interpretation and application of the Constitution, making this statement true.

    True or False.  For an act to be consider a crime the act must take place in which the law forbids or failure to do something that the law requires.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    An act can only be considered a crime if it takes place in violation of a law or if someone fails to do something that the law requires. This means that for an act to be legally classified as a crime, it must be explicitly prohibited by the law or there must be a legal obligation to perform a certain action that is not fulfilled. Therefore, the statement "For an act to be considered a crime, the act must take place in which the law forbids or failure to do something that the law requires" is true.

    guns
    weapons
    gun
    weapon
    Explanation
    When a law enforcement officer frisks you, they are looking for two things: drugs and weapons. This is because both drugs and weapons are considered illegal and can pose a threat to public safety. By searching for these items during a frisk, the officer aims to ensure that individuals are not carrying any dangerous or prohibited items that could potentially harm others or be used in criminal activities.

    Rate this question:

  • 8. 

    Can the state take your life, liberty or property without due process? Answer Yes or No

    • Yes

    • No

    Correct Answer
    A. No
    Explanation
    The answer is "No" because according to the principle of due process, the state cannot take away an individual's life, liberty, or property without following the legal procedures and providing fair treatment. Due process ensures that individuals have the right to be heard, present evidence, and receive a fair trial before any deprivation of life, liberty, or property occurs. This principle is a fundamental aspect of many legal systems, including the United States Constitution.

    Rate this question:

  • 9. 

    What are the first ten Amendments to the US Constitution called?

    Correct Answer

    Explanation
    The first ten Amendments to the US Constitution are called the Bill of Rights. The Bill of Rights was added to the Constitution in 1791 and guarantees individual rights and freedoms, such as freedom of speech, religion, and the right to a fair trial. It was added to address concerns that the original Constitution did not provide enough protection for individual liberties. The Bill of Rights is an important part of the Constitution and has had a significant impact on shaping American law and society.

    The US ___________ Court must hear all cases that involve the constitutionality of Federal Law

    Correct Answer
    Supreme
    supreme
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Supreme Court". The Supreme Court is the highest court in the United States and has the authority to review and interpret the constitutionality of federal laws. It is the final arbiter in legal disputes and has the power to make binding decisions that affect the entire country. The term "supreme" is used to emphasize the highest level of authority and jurisdiction that the Supreme Court holds.

    True or False. A person cannot be accused of a crime if the accusation is based on a persons status or condition

    Correct Answer
    True
    T
    Explanation
    A person cannot be accused of a crime solely based on their status or condition. Accusations should be based on evidence and actions that directly relate to the alleged crime. It is unfair and unjust to accuse someone of a crime simply because of their status or condition, as it goes against the principles of equality and due process.

    Rate this question:

  • 12. 

    If a prosecutor decides to get a win, something is better than nothing that is called a __________ bargain

    Correct Answer
    plea
    Explanation
    A plea bargain is a negotiation between the prosecutor and the defendant in a criminal case, where the defendant agrees to plead guilty or no contest to a lesser charge or to a reduced sentence in exchange for a more lenient punishment. In this context, if a prosecutor decides to prioritize securing a conviction rather than risk losing the case, they may opt for a plea bargain rather than going to trial. Therefore, a plea bargain is considered "something" (a conviction) rather than "nothing" (a potential loss at trial).

    Correct Answer
    Civil
    Civil Suit
    Explanation
    A suit brought for a private wrong refers to a legal action taken by an individual against another individual or entity for causing harm or injury. This type of suit is known as a civil suit, which seeks to resolve disputes and provide compensation for damages suffered. Civil suits are different from criminal cases, as they involve resolving conflicts between private parties rather than prosecuting criminal offenses. Therefore, the correct answer is civil or civil suit.

    Holly sees a crime being committed and she detains the alleged suspect by tackling them to the ground and sitting on them until police arrive, what type of arrest has she made? ________

    Correct Answer
    citizens
    citizen
    Explanation
    Holly has made a citizen's arrest. In this situation, she, as a private individual, has taken it upon herself to detain the alleged suspect until the police arrive. A citizen's arrest allows individuals to apprehend someone they believe has committed a crime, as long as they have witnessed the offense or have reasonable grounds to believe that the person being detained is guilty.

    Rate this question:

  • 16. 

    You are considered a juvenile up to age________?

    Correct Answer
    18
    eighteen
    Explanation
    Juvenile refers to a person who is not yet considered an adult. In most legal systems, including many countries, the age of 18 is the threshold for adulthood. Therefore, up to the age of 18, an individual is considered a juvenile. This is the age at which they are no longer subject to certain legal protections and restrictions that apply to minors. The term "eighteen" is simply another way of expressing the numerical value of 18.

    Rate this question:

    True or False. Since you are minor it is okay for you to download music from a peer-to-peer file sharing program like LimeWire or FrostWire because even if you are caught your guardians will not be responsible for the fines at a minimum of $750.00 per song?

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    Downloading music from a peer-to-peer file sharing program like LimeWire or FrostWire as a minor does not exempt you from legal consequences. Even if you are caught, your guardians can still be held responsible for the fines, which can be at a minimum of $750.00 per song. Therefore, it is not okay for a minor to download music from such platforms.

    Rate this question:

  • 18. 

    What agency would investigate a construction worker not wearing a hard hat?

    Correct Answer
    OSHA
    Explanation
    OSHA, which stands for Occupational Safety and Health Administration, would be the agency responsible for investigating a construction worker not wearing a hard hat. OSHA is a federal agency that ensures safe and healthy working conditions for employees in the United States. They have the authority to enforce regulations and standards related to workplace safety, including the use of personal protective equipment like hard hats in construction sites. Therefore, if a construction worker is found to be not wearing a hard hat, OSHA would investigate the situation to ensure compliance with safety regulations.

    Correct Answer
    Felony
    felony
    felonies
    Explanation
    A major crime punishable by imprisonment or death (in jail for over a year) is called a felony. Felonies are serious offenses that carry severe penalties, such as long-term imprisonment or even capital punishment. They are distinguished from misdemeanors, which are less serious crimes. The term "felony" can be spelled with a capital "F" or a lowercase "f" and can also be pluralized as "felonies."

    Rate this question:

  • 20. 

    True or False. The United States Government cannot make it a law to pay taxes?

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The given answer, False, is correct. The United States Government can indeed make it a law to pay taxes. In fact, the government has the authority to levy taxes on its citizens and enforce the collection of those taxes through various means. Failure to pay taxes can lead to legal consequences such as fines or even imprisonment. Therefore, it is incorrect to say that the United States Government cannot make it a law to pay taxes.

    Rate this question:

  • 21. 

    ___________________ Is to make sure you show up to court, to protect society, a deposit.

    Correct Answer
    bail
    bail/bond
    bail bond
    bond
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "bail, bail/bond, bail bond, bond". Bail is a payment made to the court as a guarantee that the defendant will appear for their court proceedings. It is a way to ensure that the defendant does not flee and to protect society from potential harm. Bail can be in the form of cash or property, and in some cases, a bail bond can be obtained through a bail bondsman who guarantees the payment of bail on behalf of the defendant. Bond is another term used interchangeably with bail, referring to the financial guarantee made to the court.

    The power to hear a case:

    • Jurisdiction.

    • Long arm of the law

    • Supreme Court

    Correct Answer
    A. Jurisdiction.
    Explanation
    Jurisdiction refers to the power or authority of a court to hear and decide a case. It determines whether a court has the legal right to adjudicate a particular matter. The term "long arm of the law" refers to the ability of the legal system to reach individuals or entities outside its geographical boundaries. The Supreme Court is the highest court in the judicial system and has the authority to hear certain types of cases, but it is not directly related to the power to hear a case as jurisdiction is.

    Serious harm to an occupied structure and or its contents?

    • Criminal Damaging

    • Vandalism

    • Arson

    • Robbery

    Correct Answer
    A. Vandalism
    Explanation
    Vandalism refers to the act of intentionally damaging or destroying property, including occupied structures and their contents. It involves defacing, breaking, or ruining the property without any lawful justification. The other options, such as criminal damaging, arson, and robbery, may also cause harm to an occupied structure, but they involve different intentions or elements. Criminal damaging may involve intentionally damaging property, but it may not necessarily be for the purpose of causing harm to an occupied structure. Arson involves intentionally setting fire to a property, and robbery involves stealing from a person or property, but they may not specifically target occupied structures.

    The explanation for the given answer is that murder involves the deliberate and intentional killing of another person with malice or evil intent. On the other hand, manslaughter refers to the unintentional killing of another person without malice or evil intent. Therefore, the major difference between murder and manslaughter lies in the presence or absence of evil intent or malice.

    • False

    Correct Answer

    Correct Answer
    Miranda
    miranda
    meranda
    mernanda
    Explanation
    When you are arrested, you are informed of your constitutional rights which are called Miranda rights. These rights include the right to remain silent, the right to have an attorney present during questioning, and the warning that anything you say can be used against you in a court of law. The term "Miranda" refers to the landmark Supreme Court case Miranda v. Arizona, which established the requirement for law enforcement to inform individuals of their rights upon arrest. The other options, "miranda," "meranda," and "mernanda," are variations or misspellings of the correct term.

The Executive branch is responsible for enforcing laws and is headed by the President or Prime Minister. The Legislative branch is responsible for making laws and is composed of the Congress or Parliament. The Judicial branch is responsible for interpreting laws and is made up of the courts and judges. These three branches work together to ensure a system of checks and balances in the government.

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The statement is true. Intermediate appellate courts in state courts typically review cases to determine if there were any errors in the application of the law or legal procedures during the trial. They generally do not review the facts of the case unless there is evidence of prejudice or a clear error in the decision-making process. In such cases, the appellate court may review the facts to ensure a fair and just outcome.

    In the case of the Eric McLean the husband who shot and killed the 18 year old who was having an affair with his wife why was he found not guilty of 1st degree murder because he didn't have ________________ and it was in the heat of the moment.

    Correct Answer
    intent
    Explanation
    Eric McLean was found not guilty of first-degree murder because he didn't have intent. This means that there was no premeditation or planning involved in the act of shooting and killing the 18-year-old who was having an affair with his wife. The fact that it was a crime of passion and happened in the heat of the moment suggests that there was no deliberate intention to commit murder. Therefore, without the presence of intent, McLean could not be charged with first-degree murder.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer

    An arrest is a legal action taken by authorities to detain an individual suspected of committing a crime. When someone is arrested, they are typically taken into custody and their freedom is restricted. They are no longer able to move freely, make decisions independently, or engage in their regular activities. Therefore, it can be concluded that an arrest does indeed deprive a person of their freedom.

    Explanation
    The situation described in the question is an example of an ordinance. An ordinance is a law or regulation enacted by a local government, such as a city or county, that applies to a specific area or community. In this case, the city requiring Amber to purchase a permit and register her business name with the local county government is a local regulation or law, which is typically referred to as an ordinance. Constitutional law refers to the fundamental laws and principles outlined in a country's constitution, while criminal law pertains to laws that define and regulate criminal offenses. Both of these options are not applicable in this scenario.

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    In both cases of Bethel vs. Frasier and Morse vs. Frederick, the US Supreme Court ruled in favor of the school districts in their punishments given to the students. In Bethel vs. Frasier, the court determined that schools have the right to regulate lewd and indecent speech that is inconsistent with the educational mission. In Morse vs. Frederick, the court concluded that schools can restrict student speech that promotes illegal drug use. Therefore, the correct answer is true.

    The Ohio __________________ Code is what we use in OH to determine what is a crime?

    Correct Answer
    revised
    revise
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "revised" because it is the past tense form of the verb "revise," which means to make changes or updates to something. In this context, the question is asking about the code that is used in Ohio to determine what is considered a crime. By using the word "revised," it suggests that the code has been modified or updated over time to reflect changes in the law. "Revise" is also included in the answer options, which further supports the correct answer being "revised."

    Correct Answer
    Appeals
    appeals
    Explanation
    In the US District Court of Appeals, most cases are decided by a panel of 3 judges without the presence of witnesses, evidence, or juries. The focus is solely on questions of law rather than questions of fact. This means that not all cases can be appealed because the appeals process is typically reserved for challenging legal interpretations and decisions made by lower courts.

    In order to provide stability to a legal system, courts use prior cases as a guide for deciding similar new cases. These prior cases are known as:

    • Legal.

    • Equity.

    • Jurisdiction.

    • Precedents.

    Correct Answer
    A. Precedents.
    Explanation
    Courts use prior cases as a guide for deciding similar new cases in order to provide stability to a legal system. These prior cases, known as precedents, serve as a reference point for judges to make consistent and fair decisions. By following established precedents, courts ensure that similar cases are treated similarly, promoting predictability and uniformity in the legal system. This practice also allows for the development of legal principles and doctrines over time, shaping the evolution of the law.

    Taylor, age 17, is driving to school tomorrow and is pulled over for speeding will she have to go to court?  YES or NO.

    • Yes

    • No

    Correct Answer
    A. Yes
    Explanation
    Taylor, being pulled over for speeding, will likely have to go to court because it is a common procedure when someone is issued a traffic ticket. Going to court allows individuals to contest the ticket, present their case, or negotiate a plea deal. However, the specific outcome may vary depending on the circumstances, local laws, and the discretion of the judge.

    Rate this question:

                      If a state constitution and the U.S. Constitution conflict, which prevails?

    • State constitution

    • The US Constitution

    • Supreme Court

    • State Supreme Court

    Correct Answer
    A. The US Constitution
    Explanation
    If a state constitution and the U.S. Constitution conflict, the U.S. Constitution prevails. This is because the U.S. Constitution is the supreme law of the land and takes precedence over any state constitution. The Supremacy Clause in Article VI of the U.S. Constitution establishes that federal law, including the U.S. Constitution, is the supreme law of the land, and state laws and constitutions must comply with it. The Supreme Court is the ultimate interpreter of the U.S. Constitution and has the authority to resolve conflicts between state and federal law. The State Supreme Court does not have the final say in such conflicts.

Many principles and concepts, such as the presumption of innocence and the idea of a fair trial, originated in ancient societies like Mesopotamia, Egypt, and Greece. These ideas have been passed down through generations and have influenced the development of modern legal systems around the world. Therefore, it is true that our law codes have similarities to those of civilizations that existed thousands of years ago.

    A public wrong is not committed against a company. A public wrong refers to an offense or violation that harms the general public or society as a whole, rather than a specific individual or organization. While a company may be affected by a public wrong, it is not the direct target or victim of such an offense. Therefore, the statement that a public wrong is committed against a company is false.

Miranda rights, on the other hand, are derived from the 5th Amendment and refer to the rights of individuals in police custody, including the right to remain silent and the right to have an attorney present during questioning. Therefore, the statement that the 6th Amendment deals with Miranda Rights is false.
