In this task, you will be shown a prompt from a judicial decision and multiple holding statements derived from citations following text in a legal decision. Holdings represent the governing legal rule when the law is applied to a particular set of facts. There are five answer choices for each citing text. The correct answer is the holding statement that corresponds to the citing text. You should write an incorrect option. Even though there exist multiple wrong answers, we only need a single wrong answer. There is a <HOLDING> token in the position of the citing text prompt where the holding statement was extracted.

[EX Q]: to Richardson. 6 . In J.E.B. v. Alabama ex rel. T.B., 511 U.S. 127, 114 S.Ct. 1419, 128 L.Ed.2d 89 (1994), the Supreme Court extended Batson and its progeny to prohibit the exercise of peremptory challenges on the basis of gender. 7 . The Slate also points out that the presiding judge in the instant case is an African American jurist. Judge Green's sensitivity and efforts to seat a constitutional and racially-diverse jury for defendant, is evidenced in the debate over Richardson. Even though the judge originally found the state's race-neutral reasons as to Richardson valid, he became concerned about the exclusion of African Americans from defendant's jury. However, the judge's race is not relevant to Batson analysis. See State v. Tilley, 99-0569, p. 8 (La.7/6/00), 767 So.2d 6, 15 (<HOLDING>). 8 . A discussion of the assignments of error
Holding statements: (A) holding that more favorable treatment of similarly situated employees outside the race classification is required to make a prima facie race discrimination case (B) holding that a criminal defendant can bring a third party challenge to the peremptory striking of jurors based on race whether or not he is of the same race as the jurors who are struck (C) recognizing that certain forms of race consciousness do not lead inevitably to impermissible race discrimination (D) holding that custody decision based on race is not justified (E) holding that the race of the prosecutor is irrelevant
[EX A]: holding that more favorable treatment of similarly situated employees outside the race classification is required to make a prima facie race discrimination case

[EX Q]: 45 U.S.C. 56, and 46 U.S.C. 30106, are essentially identical, stating that the action must be "commenced" or "brought" within the three year period. The Supreme Court in Burnett specifically found that the state court suit had been properly "commenced" although it was filed in an improper venue. 380 U.S. at 426, 85 S.Ct. at 1053. Furthermore, because the principle of uniformity that drove the Burnett decision applies with equal force to a general maritime action, other courts have correctly held that Burnett applies in general maritime cases. See, e.g., Prejean, 721 So.2d at 1276 (citing 1 Martin J. Norris, The Law of Maritime Personal Injuries 5:10 (4th ed.1990)); Davis, 659 F.Supp. at 156-157; People of the Living God v. Star Towing Co., 289 F.Supp. 635, 639 (E.D.La.1968) (<HOLDING>). Defendant's second argument for distinction
Holding statements: (A) holding that feres doctrine is equally applicable to family member claims derivative of a service members injuries (B) holding that uniformity is as important in maritime survival actions as it is in maritime wrongful death actions (C) holding that courts apply substantive admiralty law to claims that sound in admiralty regardless of whether the complaint invokes diversity or admiralty jurisdiction (D) holding that burnett and its justification of uniformity is equally applicable to admiralty actions (E) holding that a complaint that asserts both admiralty jurisdiction and diversity jurisdiction is not an adequate 9h designation to trigger admiralty procedures
[EX A]: holding that feres doctrine is equally applicable to family member claims derivative of a service members injuries

[EX Q]: furnished"). This court need not decide at this time whether or not the Utah Supreme Court would follow Hootch. The plaintiffs' specific claims in this case are for violations of the federal constitution's equal protection provisions and for violations of various federal laws. Kowallis's "rather broad dicta" appears to make the state constitutional guarantee of open schools coextensive with equal protection guarantees. The court will therefore address the defendants' duty in the context of the plaintiffs' equal protection claim. G. The Plaintiffs' Equal Protection Claim (First Claim for Relief) The plaintiffs' first claim for relief alleges that the defendants have deliberately discriminated against the plaintiffs based on their race, in violat 96 S.Ct. 943, 948, 47 L.Ed.2d 106 (1976) (<HOLDING>); Morton v. Mancari, 417 U.S. 535, 553-55, 94
Holding statements: (A) holding the argument that the state and federal constitutions required appointed counsel in adoption proceeding was not preserved (B) holding that defamation action is not a proceeding arising in a bankruptcy case (C) holding no state court jurisdiction in an adoption proceeding (D) holding that parties not related to the child could not file an adoption petition and later prove the unfitness of the natural parents because the child was not available for adoption as defined in the adoption act parents had to be found unfit before petition could be filed (E) holding that indians could be denied access to state courts in connection with an adoption proceeding arising on a reservation
