-
Pre-Moral stage
-
Pre-Conventional stage
-
Post-Conventional stage
-
Conventional stage
Correct Answer
A. Pre-Moral stageExplanation
The correct answer is Pre-Moral stage. In this stage of moral development, individuals do not understand the rules and do not feel a sense of obligation to follow them. They are primarily concerned with avoiding punishment and seeking rewards, rather than considering ethical principles or the needs of others. This stage is characterized by a lack of moral reasoning and a focus on self-interest.Rate this question:

Which of the following is not ethical behavior in regards to the body of the deceased?
-
Performing an embalming on a contracted direct cremation for school
-
Accepting golf trips for a Vault contract
-
Allowing personal friends to view an embalming
-
All of the above
Correct Answer
A. All of the aboveExplanation
All of the options listed in the question are examples of unethical behavior in regards to the body of the deceased. Performing an embalming on a contracted direct cremation for school goes against the wishes and agreements made with the deceased and their family. Accepting golf trips for a Vault contract implies a conflict of interest and unethical behavior in accepting personal benefits in exchange for business. Allowing personal friends to view an embalming violates the privacy and dignity of the deceased and their family. Therefore, all of the options mentioned are not ethical behaviors in regards to the body of the deceased.Rate this question:

-
The Statute of Limitations
-
Stare Decisis
-
The Statute of Frauds
-
Special Performance
Correct Answer
A. The Statute of LimitationsExplanation
The most likely reason the lawsuit was "thrown out of court" is because of the Statute of Limitations. This legal principle sets a time limit within which a lawsuit must be filed after the occurrence of an event. In this case, the theft of the wedding ring happened 20 years ago, which is likely beyond the statute of limitations for filing a lawsuit. Therefore, the court would dismiss the case as it was not filed within the specified time frame.Rate this question:

Mary expressed to the funeral director at Graves Funeral Home and Crematory, that she wished the service to be "PRIVATE". The Local newspaper was sent the following Obit: "Mr. James Mason died at home surrounded by family. Services will be Saturday at Lawn Field Cemetery, 7 am. Family requests donation to the Soldiers and Sailors fund in place of flowers." Protestors from a conservative Christian Church attended the Cordage and disrupted the Graveside service. Why did the court rule in favor of the plaintiff (Mary), when she placed a lawsuit against Graves Funeral Home?
-
Breach of Contract (She expressly asked for a private service) and the obit. was incorrectly transcribed to the newspaper, leading to an "Open invitation" to the Public.
-
Due diligence in protecting the service was not performed or requested to be performed by the funeral home. They should have requested private security.
-
A waiver was never signed, holding the funeral home not responsible for security
-
All of the above were potential reasons
Correct Answer
A. All of the above were potential reasonsExplanation
The court ruled in favor of the plaintiff (Mary) because all of the above reasons were potential factors contributing to the breach of contract by Graves Funeral Home. Mary had explicitly requested a private service, but the obituary published in the newspaper incorrectly invited the public. The funeral home failed to perform due diligence in protecting the service and did not request private security. Additionally, there was no signed waiver holding the funeral home not responsible for security. These combined factors led the court to rule in favor of Mary.Rate this question:

-
Assault
-
Mutual responsibility for mutilation, Breech of Contract : "Failure to Protect"
-
Fraud
-
Theft of Human Products of Conception
Correct Answer
A. Mutual responsibility for mutilation, Breech of Contract : "Failure to Protect"Explanation
The potential torts assigned to the funeral home by Mr. Franks' current spouse could be mutual responsibility for mutilation and breach of contract for "failure to protect." This is because the funeral home received a call from Autopsy Services Inc. to recover sperm for cryopreservation without the proper consent from Mr. Franks or his current spouse. By proceeding with the procedure based on the consent documents signed by Mr. Franks and his divorced wife, the funeral home failed to protect the rights and interests of Mr. Franks and his current spouse, which can be considered a breach of their duty of care.Rate this question:

A "Hate Group" has issued a lawsuit against Harry's Funeral Home for obstructing there "Protest" of a resent "Terrorist's" Funeral. The Funeral Director set up roadblocks with his Hearse's and purchased private security to guard the Street and church and cemetery entrances, the resulting riot between the funeral procession, private security, and "The GROUP", caused two injuries, one serious and the other potentially fatal. The Lawsuit claims the first amendment "Freedom of Speech" was violated, and the protest was on CITY/STATE property and allowed, and that the funeral director and his "Private security" detail violated "THE GROUPS" rights. The group's lawsuit won, the reason was?
-
Stare's Decisis
-
Violation of Administrative law
-
Violation of state RSA
-
Violation of Police Powers ACT
Correct Answer
A. Stare's DecisisExplanation
Although lower courts have ruled in such cases, the US Supreme Court has ruled non-violent protests, despite there "Violent, rude or hate-filled" messages, have the right to protest on Public Property...even if they "offend and dishonor" the funeral procession. High Profile cases such as this are rare, but the appropriate "Security measures" albeit needed, should have legal advice and even police involvement to avoid potential legal ramifications in the long term. As to the question at hand..."Stare's Decisis" is the reason because previous court precedent has been documented and due to this, the court followed the "previous" orders.Rate this question:

To void the contract, the person must indicate he or she will not be bound by the contract. This can be explicitly expressed by the person in a declaration or implied when the person performs an act that indicates he will not abide by the terms of the contract. Disaffirmance occurs when an avoidable contractual obligation is renounced. Minors or, in some cases, persons who can prove they lacked the capacity to enter a legally binding contract - intoxication, mental incompetence, etc. - can disaffirm a contract and therefore avoid all legal obligations set forth in the contract.Rate this question:
