Criminal court proceedings are conducted in a courthouse where evidence for and against the defendant is presented. The jury will make a decision and the judge will pass the verdict.
Criminal proceedings are legal actions that take place in court to determine if a person has committed a crime. These proceedings typically involve charges being filed, evidence being presented, and a trial where guilt or innocence is decided by a judge or jury. The outcome can result in various penalties or consequences for the defendant.
A stay of proceedings does not result in a criminal record, as it is a legal decision to temporarily halt a case without a verdict. If the stay is granted, the charges may be dismissed or not pursued, meaning there is no conviction. However, if the stay is lifted and the case proceeds to trial, a conviction could potentially lead to a criminal record. It's important to consult legal counsel for specific situations, as laws can vary by jurisdiction.
