Answer 1

Answer:

We would like to follow the IRAC method for this case as below

IRAC stands as I=Issue, R=Rule,    A=Application    C=Conclusion

Issue (I): Jack has entered in the store of Kicks and Laces at 10.00pm night with duplicate key and he takes $1000 and three pair of shoes worth $600 from the store for Christmas celebration with his family. Thus Jack has broken the legal law of entering in the place of other at night and stolen money and valuable things.

Rule ( R ): The rule says that grand theft is considered when a person enters in the place of others without information and stolen the property of value more than $950. This is as per the Greenacre Penal Code Section 232. Thus as per this rule Jack falls under the category of grand theft at the Kicks and Laces stores.

Application (A) = This rule is applied for this case such that the jack will be found with the act of grand theft because he has stolen $1000 and three pairs of shoes from the store. The value of here pairs of shoes is worth $600. Thus total value of property jack has stolen is $1600. Thus he meets the criteria of grand theft as per the Greenacre pane code and jack will be liable for this penalty as per this law of the land.

Conclusion ( C ) = The conclusion of the case is that Jack will be made liable for the grand theft case because of his theft act of property value of $1600 at the Kicks and Laces store. Jack will be penalized by the court for his grand theft act at the store.
