What are articles of impeachment?

Articles of Impeachment are precise statement of the facts upon which an impeachment of a government official is based. In the US Constitution under Article I Section 3, for example, the President can be impeached and removed only for Treason, Bribery and other high crimes and misdemeanors. The House of Representatives draws up and votes on the Articles of Impeachment stating the facts that allegedly amount to those offenses. Articles of Impeachment are likened to the counts of an indictment against a defendant in a criminal case.Note: Impeachment refers to the process. Impeachment does not mean removal. A conviction for impeachment means automatic removal from office.

Yes, the defense can request a review of a decision in an impeachment court, but the specific procedures and grounds for such a request depend on the rules governing the impeachment process in that jurisdiction. Typically, this may involve appealing to a higher court or seeking a reconsideration based on legal or procedural errors. However, the scope for review in impeachment cases is often limited, as they are primarily political processes rather than traditional judicial proceedings.
