What occurs during a Trial?

During a trial, a formal examination of evidence takes place in court to resolve a dispute between the parties involved. This process is structured and governed by rules of procedure, where legal representatives present their case to a judge or jury. The trial involves presenting evidence, including witness testimonies, documents, and other relevant materials, to support each party's claims or defenses.

The primary goal of a trial is to determine the facts of the case based on the evidence presented and to apply the law to those facts to reach a just resolution. It is a critical stage in the legal process, allowing the court to act as an impartial adjudicator. This formal examination is distinct from other legal processes, such as negotiations or preliminary reviews, which focus on different aspects and stages of legal disputes.
