Answer:

correct option is B. $2,000

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know compensatory damage is claim by plaintiff in order to compensate for the incurred loss or any injury

so that The plaintiff have to prove that he suffer damage by the defendant negligence or an un lawful conduct

so here Kris loss is $5,000 - $3,000

loss = $2000

so he can sue in a civil court to recover the $2,000

so correct option is B. $2,000
