Most criminal trials take place in a Magistrate's Court.
All magistrates are legally qualified.
In court there will also be a prosecutor, who appears for the prosecution, and there may be a lawyer who argues for the defendant. The more serious cases are dealt with in the Intermediate Court or the High Court in front of a judge. The judge decides whether the defendant is guilty or not. The judge will decide on a sentence. Judges and lawyers who appears in these Courts wear robes.
