Question

you hired a contractor to update electrical wiring in your house. after the work, the outlets in your kitchen all shorted out. the contractor refused to return to do the work without additional payment. which kind of state court would you take the contractor to?
a) criminal court
b) limited jurisdiction
c) civil court
d) grand jury

Explanation:

This is a civil - law dispute between a client and a contractor. Civil courts handle disputes between private parties, such as contract - related issues. The contractor's refusal to complete work without additional payment after a problem occurred is a civil matter, not a criminal one (no crime has been committed in the criminal - law sense), and grand juries are for criminal indictments. Limited - jurisdiction courts have specific, narrow scopes and are not the most appropriate here.

Answer:

C. Civil court
