Question

A justice who agrees with the outcome of a case but not the reason proffered by other justices can issue a dissenting opinion that sets forth his or her reasons for deciding the case.

A. true
B. false

Answer 1

Answer: False

Step-by-step explanation:

A dissenting opinion refers to an opinion in a legal case that's written by the judge(s) who disagree with the court's majority opinion that gives rise to its judgment.

It should be noted that a justice who agrees with the outcome of a case but doesn't agree with the reason that was proffered by other justices can issue a concurring opinion and not a dissenting opinion.

Therefore, the correct option is False.
