True or False: Courts settle disputes while police enforce the laws.

  1. True

  2. False

  3. Only in certain cases

  4. Neither do

On the other hand, police are responsible for enforcing laws by investigating crimes, making arrests, and detaining suspects. Option B is incorrect because the statement is true. Option C is incorrect because the roles of courts and police are clearly defined and not limited to certain cases. Option D is incorrect because while courts and police may not always play a direct role in every legal dispute or law enforcement situation, their respective roles in the justice system still stand.
