In a jury trial, the jury (petit jury) would determine which facts are (most likely) true or fabricated, as well as determine the guilt or innocence of the defendant.
In a trial without a jury, this role would be carried out by the judge or magistrate.

∙ 6y agoThe "trier of fact" decides the facts of a legal case. Who the "trier of fact" is depends on the type of case.
If this is tried by "arbitration" - then that arbitrator makes the decision. Often this arbitrator is also a lawyer who is familiar with local laws.
If this is a civil matter, then the person who decides the facts is the judge, unless the parties elect to have a jury trial.
If this is a criminal matter, then the person who decides the facts is normally a jury unless the defendant waives his right to a jury, in which case it is the judge.
The judges on the court of appeals may also decide facts, but only if they find that the trier of fact was in "clear error."
