Jonathan works for the US Criminal Justice System. His duties relate to courtroom security during criminal trials. He is also responsible for escorting members of the jury to and from the courtroom during such trials. Which role does Jonathan play in the courtroom? A. plaintiff B. bailiff C. court clerk D. court reporter E. litigator
Definitions: Plaintiff: A person who brings a case against another in a court of law. Bailiff: An official in a court of law who keeps order, looks after prisoners, etc. Court Clerk: An officer of the court whose responsibilities include maintaining records of a court. Court Reporter: A journalist who attends court hearings and reports on the proceedings. Litigator: Attorneys who specialize in litigation, or taking legal action against people and organizations. With this being said I think its plain to see we can cross off answer option A due to the fact a plaintiff is a person that beings a case against another person in the court of the law nothing states escorting anybody anywhere U would also cross off answer option C due to the fact the meaning of a court clerk is to keep in check of all records of a court still nothing to do with being responsible for escorting members to and from trials. And last but not least cross off answer option E due to the fact litigators take legal action against other ppl and organizations nothing to do with having to escort members of the jury to and from the courtroom during such trials. So your last answer options would be B and D which do u think is correct and why?
