Answer to Question 1

a

Answer to Question 2

A remedy is a method of rectifying wrongdoing. Remedies may be legal or extralegal in nature. Extralegal remedies are those conducted outside the legal process. An example of an extralegal remedy is vigilantism. If one man is assaulted by another, the assaulted individual may seek revenge and opt to solve the perceived injustice with his fists. Legal remedies are remedies made available by the law, by court decisions, or by a police policy or procedure.
