16 4,1 The U.S. justice system is based on this concept, in which opposing parties compete with the goal of winning at trial. What is the “adversary system?”

17 4,2 Administrative agencies usually hold these before finalizing rules, so the public has a chance to comment. What are “public hearings?”

18 4,3 If the U.S. Supreme Court rules that an act of Congress is unconstitutional, it is applying this principle of government. What is “judicial review?”

19 4,4 Type the answer for 4,4 here. (Type the question for 4,4 here.)?

20 5,1 When an appellate decision helps guide the outcome of future cases, it is known as this. What is “a precedent?”

21 5,2 Although attorney-client privilege protects most communications between lawyer and client, it doesn’t apply to this type of statement. What are “future threats against a specific person.”
