Which term describes a decision in which no detailed findings are required about how liability was determined?

• A. Grand Jury
• B. Guardian ad litem
• C. General verdict
• D. Habeas corpus

Answer: (C)

General verdict describes a jury decision that resolves the claim without detailing the facts or the reasoning used to reach liability. It simply finds liability (and damages, if any) without enumerating how the law was applied to the facts. That matches the description in the question, where no detailed findings about how liability was determined are required. The other terms refer to different concepts: a grand jury decides whether there is probable cause for an indictment; a guardian ad litem is a court-appointed representative for someone unable to participate in the case; habeas corpus is a procedural challenge to unlawful detention.
