What happens when you go to court to answer an indictment?
Indictment is a little different from being arrested "on the spot". A Grand Jury usually will hand down an indictment, where you will later have to appear for formal booking at the police station, unless they come and arrest you. In either case, you would then appear before a Judge for a preliminary hearing, where you could plead guilty, if you wish, but the proceedings generally go through the evidence they have against a person being chaged in the indictment, or at least enough evidence to convince the presiding judge to bind the case over for trial. Also, bail should be set where it is allowable.
What does secret indictment mean?
A secret indictment is the basis in which the prosecutor brings the person giving the testimony before a grand jury to give a testimony so that the accused can be arrested with a warrant. Note that the person being accused of a crime is not aware that he/she is being charged with a crime because they have no idea they are being indicted.That is why it is called a "silent" indictment. But as with any other criminal case you have a constitutional right to a trial by jury...don't ever give that right up if you are innocent.
What is indigence?
Indictment is essentially bringing charges against somebody. If you are being indicting for something, you are being charged with it.
What burden of proof is required for an indictment?
"Proof" is not needed for an indictment. Proof is what must be presented at a trial.Probable Cause to Believe is the standard that must be presented when an individual is being indicted.
An indictment has significant probative value?
Prosecutors can use indictment to show that the accusation and the probative value of evidences are significant or to use indictment to get a plea bargain. Significance of an indictment is only as significant of the alleged crime, the existence of evidence with probative value, and the sentence being sought. Whether the charge leads to a trial depends on the outcome of Preliminary Hearing. The prosecutor has to prove during the "preliminary hearing" that 1) there is enough evidence with probative value to convict the accused; and 2) it would be in the public's interest to conduct the trial and convict the accused. If a charge is brought on through indictment, the accused is entitled for a trial by jury. In Canada minor insignificant accusations can also be charged through indictment. In insignificant cases the value of indictment would probably be in the plea bargain as it does not make sense to try an insignificant case in a trial by jury.
