Fair Trials
Fair trials have been an integral part of the UK judicial system for decades. With the foundation of all court proceedings hinging on a fair legal process, the UK was one of the first developed nations to offer the right to a fair trial for its citizens.
Fair trials are defined as having an unbiased judge, uninfluenced witnesses and in idyllic cases the same number of legal counsel for all parties involved. The right to a fair trial is recognised in all countries that respect the law and basic human rights as established by a UN accord.
Fair Trial UK adheres to these guidelines and adopts a stringent policy that rejects corruption, contempt of court and any other illicit proceedings that could impede justice. Judges are a vital aspect of fair trial proceedings. With the entire processing hinging on a system of checks and balances juries and judges are required to keep a neutral position during all court proceedings.
