What do you understand by the term fair trial?
Answers
Answer:
a trial that is conducted fairly, justly, and with procedural regularity by an impartial judge and in which the defendant is afforded his or her rights under the U.S. Constitution or the appropriate state constitution or other law
NOTE: Among the factors used to determine whether a defendant received a fair trial are these: the effectiveness of the assistance of counsel, the opportunity to present evidence and witnesses, the opportunity to rebut the opposition's evidence and cross-examine the opposition's witnesses, the presence of an impartial jury, and the judge's freedom from bias.
Answer:
A fair trial is the basis of any democratic society. The judge, public prosecutor, defense lawyer, accused and the witness present various aspects of the case during the hearing.
