Civil Procedure QUESTION #3708

A plaintiff sues a defendant for $\text{\$100,000}$ in federal court. The jury finds for the plaintiff but only awards $\text{\$1,000}$ in damages. The plaintiff moves for a new trial, and the judge, finding the award shockingly low, offers the defendant the choice of a $\text{\$50,000}$ judgment or a new trial. The defendant agrees. This is known as:

Remittitur, and it is permitted in federal court.
Additur, and it is permitted in federal court.
Additur, and it is unconstitutional in federal court under the Seventh Amendment.✔️
Remittitur, and it is unconstitutional in federal court.

Correct Answer Logic:

Additur (increasing a jury verdict) is unconstitutional in federal court because it violates the Seventh Amendment's right to a jury trial. Remittitur (decreasing a verdict) is allowed.

Question 490

The last date for submission of Supplementary Grant schedules to the Finance Division (Budget Wing) is 31st May. A Ministry submits its schedule on 1st June citing operational difficulties. Analytically what is the MOST LIKELY consequence?

The Finance Division will accept the schedule since the deadline is a guideline not a strict rule
The Finance Division will view the submission with disfavour; the Ministry should have anticipated the need well ahead of the financial year; the late submission may result in the supplementary grant not being processed✔️
The schedule is automatically rejected and the Ministry must wait for the next financial year
The Financial Adviser can grant an extension of up to 30 days on his own authority

Correct Answer Logic:

The Finance Division will look with disfavour upon any request for Supplementary Grants except in extraordinary circumstances. The system expects Ministries to anticipate requirements well ahead of the financial year. A submission after the 31st May deadline compounds this problem as the O.M. is explicit about this deadline. Late submissions risk not being entertained.

Education QUESTION #6889

Question 500

A teacher who practices 'preventive management' is BEST distinguished from one who practices 'reactive management' by which of the following characteristics?

A preventive manager uses more punitive consequences; a reactive manager uses more rewards
A preventive manager establishes rules by consensus and pre-defines consequences; a reactive manager improvises responses to behavior as it occurs✔️
A preventive manager focuses on academic achievement; a reactive manager focuses on behavior
A preventive manager collaborates with parents; a reactive manager works only within the classroom

Correct Answer Logic:

Preventive management is proactive: rules are co-constructed with students, consequences for both compliance and non-compliance are established in advance, and routines are designed to minimize opportunities for disruption. Reactive management, by contrast, responds to problems as they arise, which is generally less effective and more disruptive to the instructional environment.
