Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 3
Rationale 1: Burden of proof falls to the plaintiff and is the duty to prove wrongdoing.
Rationale 2: Complaint is a document filed by a person (plaintiff) who claims that his or her legal rights have been infringed on by one or more persons (defendants).
Rationale 3: Discovery is an effort by both parties to obtain all the facts of the situation. It occurs before the trial.
Rationale 4: Civil action is a legal action that deals with the relationships among individuals in society.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 2
Rationale 1: Statutory laws are laws enacted by any legislative body.
Rationale 2: Administrative agencies are given authority to create rules and regulations to enforce statutory law when the state legislature passes a statute.

Rationale 3: Common law refers to laws evolved from court decisions.
Rationale 4: Public law refers to the body of law that deals with relationships between individuals and the government and governmental agencies.
