Are you asking about the robbery TRIAL itself, or just the sentencing hearing?
If you weren't sentenced immediately after the jury's verdict was delivered, you will receive a sentencing hearing at which the judge will announce your sentence for having already been found guilty by the jury.
Sometimes, especially for capital crimes, the same trial jury will consider the sentence as a separate action from their verdict deliberations, but unless the armed robbery involved someone's death, this probably would not apply in this case.
It doesn't. Sentencing by jury doesn't occur until AFTER the trial is concluded and the jury has announced its finding.
Jury deliberation - announcement of verdict - sentencing.
Investigation > Arrest > Booking > Arraignment > Bond hearing (note: sometimes the arraignment and bond hearing are held simultaneously) > Preliminary hearing(s) > Jury Selection > Trial > Jury Deliberation > Verdict > Sentencing.
In a murder trial, the sequence of events typically involves jury selection, opening statements from the prosecution and defense, presentation of evidence and witness testimonies, closing arguments, jury instructions, jury deliberation, and the verdict. If the defendant is found guilty, a sentencing phase follows where the judge determines the punishment.
Not sure what the questioner is asking. "The "PRONOUNCEMENT OF THE VERDICT?" The word describing the jury's discussion of the trial is known as DELIBERATION. If neither of those is what you are looking for, re-phrase and re-submit the question please. ADDED (by Ginger2 87) : the name for reached a verdict of guilty is convicted e.g. he was convicted of armed robbery therefore he was found guilty of armed robbery
A criminal trial includes: Jury selection, opening statements, the state's case, the defense case, rebuttals, closing arguments, jury deliberation and verdict. For further information, please see the related links below.
jury selection
Yes. However the jury would decide how much weight to give his testimony.
Yes, sentencing is totally under the purview of the presiding judge in accordance with the sentencing laws of the state.
If the jury thinks you knew about the drugs, then you had constructive possession and it's over, It is a first degree felony, but the firearm makes it a life felony. The sentencing range is 15-life, the 15 is a minimum. Also depends on the class of drug. Schedule I and Schedule II has different sentencing guidelines, if it is federal you are looking at lots of time.
You must convince the judge or jury that you did not commit the crime and are not guilty.
what happens in the verdictafter trial is that the person gets the sentencing and then goes to a hung jury
