Sheila letting Susan keep $1,000 without holding her liable for not completing the job is an example of a WAIVER.
Explanation:
A waiver is a legal intention or demonstration of a party in a contract to voluntarily relinquish their rights or claims in a contract. This is done without holding the other party (especially when they default in meeting the terms of the contract) liable for damages.
The party that voluntarily relinquishes their rights will usually not pursue any legal action against the defaulting party.
Therefore the scenario above is an example of a waiver, since Sheila has decided not to enforce the contract and has also allowed Susan keep part of the money.
being suspected of supplying drugs means you are much more likely to be charged. the amount of drugs found on you, and whether you have a criminal record, will be taken into account when a punishment is being decided.
decisions to prosecute are taken by the public prosecution service. the maximum sentences for intent to supply drugs are:
- up to life in prison or an unlimited fine (or both) for a class a drug- up to 14 years in prison or an unlimited fine (or both) for a class b or class c drug."sorry if this was a school question, you didnt supply options so i assumed it was a personal question, which if it is, reconsider selling or having possesion of any drugs at all. i wish you the best!Other questions on the subject: Business
