The judge is responsible for the orderly conduct of the trial, making rulings on motions and objections to procedures before, during and after trial, charging the jury on the law that applies to the case, and entering a judgment based on the jury verdict. Sometimes the judge also decides the case all on his or her own if there is no jury (a situation known as a bench trial). In appellate matters, the judge is responsible to review the record of the trial on appeal and make determinations whether there were any errors at trial that would render a verdict/judgment incorrect. The judge either affirms, reverses or reverses and remands the matter to the trial court for rehearing consistent with the appellate court's ruling.
