question

While on vacation, two friends went scuba diving in the ocean. Each of them was equipped with a spear gun, which they planned to use to kill tuna. As they were swimming, both men saw what appeared to be a large fin entangled in a nearby coral reef. Simultaneously, they shot their spear guns at the projecting wing-like figure. Unbeknownst to either of the friends, it was not a fish but rather another scuba diver. The victim was struck and slightly wounded by one of the spears. The victim asserts a claim for damages against the two friends. At trial, the judge should instruct the jury to rule

category

law

options

  1. against both defendants jointly unless one of them proves that he did not shoot the spear that struck the victim.
  2. against each defendant for one-half of the amount of damages, because they both acted independently and not jointly.
  3. in favor of both defendants if no evidence is presented showing who actually shot the spear that injured the victim.
  4. against each defendant for one-half of the amount of damages, because they both shot their spear guns simultaneously.
  5. in favor of the victim, as both defendants acted recklessly in a situation that required caution.
  6. against the defendant who cannot prove he did not shoot the spear, while the other defendant is exempt from damages.
  7. against each defendant for one-third of the amount of damages, with the remaining one-third to be determined by the jury.
  8. in favor of both defendants if the victim cannot prove beyond a reasonable doubt who shot the spear that injured him.
  9. against both defendants for the full amount of damages, as they were both responsible for the situation.
