The Magna Carta, signed in 1215, established the principle that no free man could be imprisoned, exiled, or stripped of his rights without a lawful judgment by his peers, which laid the groundwork for the right to a fair trial. It emphasized the importance of due process and the need for legal proceedings to be conducted fairly and justly. This document significantly influenced the development of legal systems and the concept of individual rights in the context of trials.
