Brought to trial

Brought to trial generally refers to scheduling a legal case for a hearing,[1] or to bring a defendant to court.[2] However, it has several different, ambiguous meanings and examples used in the law. To bring to trial may refer to bringing a defendant to court when the process is ongoing.

Political, war, and other infamous crimes edit

Most often, the terms brought to trial, bring to trial, brought to justice and bring to justice refer to the prosecution at trial of alleged war criminals[3] and political prisoners,[4][5] as well as those accused of treason or misprision of treason, sexual assault, and other infamous crimes.[6][7]

Speedy trial edit

In some cases, the context of the term actually indicates a speedy trial issue, as guaranteed by the Sixth Amendment to the United States Constitution.[8][9][10][11]
