Answer:

The civil court filing must be dismissed because of the constitutional right against double jeopardy.

Double jeopardy is the legal concept that protects a person from being tried again for the same or similar charge following his aquittal or conviction.

Fred Arden has been tried in criminal court and found innocent. Shawn is trying to sue him again for the same act in civil court.

This is against the rule of double jeopardy.

Total interest paid on a 30-year straight note was $230,000 during the term of the loan. The annual interest rate was 6.6%. What
dsp73

Answer:

$116,161.616

Explanation:

Given that,

Total interest paid = $230,000

Time period = 30 year

Annual interest rate = 6.6%

Total interest on loan = Loan amount × Interest rate × Time period

$230,000 = Loan amount × 6.6% × 30 years

Loan amount:

=\frac{230,000}{0.066\times 30}

=\frac{230,000}{1.98}

      = $116,161.616

Therefore, the loan amount is $116,161.616.
