回复 sunyata 的帖子
预审已经结束了。正式审判日期还8知道。
1月25日是莫里的传讯(arraignment )的日期。好像就是把莫里叫去法庭,宣读一下他被起诉的罪名,然后让莫里方面提出申辩一类的。
维基上的解释:
Arraignment is a formal reading of a criminal complaint in the presence of the defendant to inform the defendant of the charges against him or her. In response to arraignment, the accused is expected to enter a plea. Acceptable pleas vary among jurisdictions, but they generally include "guilty", "not guilty", and the peremptory pleas (or pleas in bar) setting out reasons why a trial cannot proceed. Pleas of "nolo contendere" (no contest) and the "Alford plea" are allowed in some circumstances.
......
In federal courts in the United States, arraignment takes place in two stages. The first is called the initial arraignment and must take place within 48 hours of an individual's arrest. During this arraignment the defendant is informed of any pending legal charges and is informed of his or her right to retain counsel. The presiding judge will also decide whether or not to set bail, and, if so, at what amount. The second arraignment is called a post-indictment arraignment or PIA. It is during this second arraignment that a defendant will be allowed to enter a plea.
至少看来已经进入第二阶段了。
正式的审判日期大概要这以后才知道吧?
