    Study Notes

    What Is A Trial?

    A trial is a formal procedure conducted by courts of law to resolve legal disputes between parties who have filed a lawsuit against each other. It's also referred to as a court case because it involves presenting evidence before a jury, which decides if one party was wronged by another. In some instances, trials may involve a judge making such decisions instead of using a jury system. This process can take place within criminal cases or civil litigation where contract breaches or personal injuries are involved.

    The goal of a trial is to determine whether there has been a violation of law or rights and to apply appropriate remedy. It consists of several stages, including opening statements from both sides, presentation of evidence by witnesses under oath, closing arguments, and verdicts based on juror deliberations. During these steps, attorneys aim to persuade either juries or judges to decide cases in their favor through various tactics like argument structure and rhetoric strategies.

    Trials play a crucial role in society because they help resolve conflicts and bring justice to victims of crimes or injured individuals seeking compensation for damages sustained. At its core, a trial is meant to uphold laws while ensuring fairness towards all parties involved in the judicial proceedings.
