Plain errors QSTN 1: Plain errors can be defined as severe flaws perceived in a given trial or case requiring conviction reversal as well as a remand for the creation of a new case trial to evade what is popularly known as a lapse in justice. It worth noting that any other type of error is subjective to the rule of the harmless error. In case of a minor error, which perhaps never affected case outcomes, they are said or taken to be harmless. Such errors, therefore, can never be used as a base for conviction reversal on appeal. However, in case the mistake contributed to the defendant’s conviction, then they are termed or perceived to be prejudicial, requiring conviction reversal. The three forms of error are coined together and have grounds through which they are applicable depending on the case approach. The error weight is determined based on the impact it has on the defendant’s trial outcomes. QSTN 2: The leading causes of the significant wrongful convictions are what we can refer to as eyewitness misidentification. This is based…

Therefore, countries must establish robust customs administration systems to promote trade and protect the welfare of the citizens. The paper looks at the case study of Catdom, a landlocked country with a population of about 20 million people. Catdom shares a border with four states. Only two of these countries, Eastdom and Southdom, have direct access to the sea.

Evaluation of a program Evaluation of a program refers to the use of social research procedures to systematically investigate the effectiveness of social intervention programs. The social evaluator uses various methods of social research for study, appraisal, and to help improve essential aspects of the plan (Rossi et al.). This situation includes the diagnosis of related social problems. In most instances, the policymakers who fund organizations, the managers of the programs, the taxpayers, and other interest parties tend to establish the effectiveness of an application. They have the interest to know how important such programs are. In so doing, they must find the answers to essential questions, including the nature and scope of the problem (this relates to the location and its effects on the society). Besides, they must evaluate whether the identified results justify the implementation of a new approach or to modify or expand the existing ones.

Workarounds are applied by health practitioners to solve problems and bypass emerging workflow blocks such as safety mechanisms and system or organizational issues, save time, or compensate inadequate technology (Tucker et al., 2020). An example of a Workaround Someone Else Used A nurse once used an app for transferring files to his device and exchanging his patient’s unencrypted records. The app made it possible for the nurse to share, access, as well as store patient information outside the health facility’s Information network. Why the Risk-Taking Behavior was Chosen over Behavior that Conforms to a Safety Culture The nurse used the workaround because the hospital’s information technology infrastructure made it hard for him to effectively perform his job. The hospital’s IT department had several login layers making it cumbersome to log into the system. The Risk of Using the Workaround The app posed the risk of confidentiality concerning the patient’s information, which can easily be breached because the personal device may…
