Alfred should file the motion for severance of charges for his client Jeffrey.
The correct answer is motion for severance of charges.
Generally a motion is made by the State or the defendant for requesting the court to conduct the jury trials separately for various charges.
The defendant asks for severance requesting the jury not to hear the evidences about all charges in a single trial.
