,Q1. A statute prohibits 'vehicles' in the park. A man rides a bicycle through the park. According to
textualist interpretation, which of the following is most relevant?
A. The intent of the legislature when drafting the statute
B. The ordinary meaning of 'vehicle' at the time of enactment
C. The consequences of including bicycles within the prohibition
D. The purpose of the park as a place for recreation
Correct Answer: B. The ordinary meaning of 'vehicle' at the time of enactment
Rationale: Textualism focuses on the ordinary public meaning of the statutory text at the time of
enactment, not legislative intent, consequences, or purpose. Thus, the ordinary meaning of 'vehicle' is
most relevant.
Why Wrong:
A - Textualism rejects reliance on subjective legislative intent.
C - Consequentialist reasoning is more aligned with purposivism or legal realism.
D - Purpose-based interpretation is characteristic of purposivism, not textualism.
Reference: Scalia, A. & Garner, B.A. (2012). Reading Law: The Interpretation of Legal Texts.
Q2. In a jurisdiction following the common law, which of the following is true regarding the
doctrine of stare decisis?
A. A higher court is bound by its own prior decisions.
B. An intermediate appellate court is bound by decisions of a lower court in the same jurisdiction.
C. A trial court is bound by decisions of the highest court in the jurisdiction.
D. Stare decisis requires absolute adherence to precedent without exception.
Correct Answer: C. A trial court is bound by decisions of the highest court in the jurisdiction.
Rationale: Stare decisis mandates that lower courts follow the precedents set by higher courts within the
same jurisdiction. Trial courts are bound by decisions of the highest court. Higher courts are not bound
by their own precedents absolutely; they can overrule them. Lower court decisions do not bind higher
courts.
Why Wrong:
A - Higher courts, such as supreme courts, can overrule their own precedents.
B - Intermediate appellate courts are bound by higher courts, not lower courts.
D - Stare decisis allows for overruling in exceptional circumstances.

, Q3. Under the Federal Rules of Evidence, which of the following is NOT a valid basis for excluding
relevant evidence?
A. The evidence is unfairly prejudicial.
B. The evidence confuses the issues.
C. The evidence is cumulative.
D. The evidence is hearsay but falls under a recognized exception.
Correct Answer: D. The evidence is hearsay but falls under a recognized exception.
Rationale: Relevant evidence may be excluded under Rule 403 if its probative value is substantially
outweighed by danger of unfair prejudice, confusion, or waste of time (including cumulative evidence).
Hearsay that falls under an exception is admissible, not excludable on that ground.
Why Wrong:
A - Unfair prejudice is a specific ground for exclusion under Rule 403.
B - Confusion of issues is a ground for exclusion under Rule 403.
C - Cumulative evidence can be excluded under Rule 403 as waste of time.
Reference: Federal Rules of Evidence, Rule 403.
Q4. In a negligence action, which of the following best describes the relationship between breach of
duty and proximate cause?
A. Breach of duty is a question of fact for the jury; proximate cause is a question of law for the judge.
B. Both breach and proximate cause are questions of fact for the jury.
C. Both breach and proximate cause are questions of law for the judge.
D. Breach is a question of law; proximate cause is a question of fact.
Correct Answer: B. Both breach and proximate cause are questions of fact for the jury.
Rationale: Breach of duty is assessed by the reasonable person standard, a factual determination for the
jury. Proximate cause, involving foreseeability and directness, is also generally a question of fact, though
the judge may decide if reasonable minds could differ. Thus, both are typically for the jury.
Why Wrong:
A - Proximate cause is not exclusively a question of law; it is usually for the jury.
C - Both are not questions of law; breach is a factual determination.
D - Breach is not a question of law; it is a factual inquiry.
