A quick definition of certificate of probable cause:

A certificate of probable cause, also known as a CPC, is a document that is used in legal cases to determine if there is enough evidence to support an appeal. It is similar to a certificate of appealability, which is used in federal cases. The CPC is issued by a judge and is based on the facts of the case. It is important because it allows the appellant to continue with their appeal even if they do not meet all of the requirements for an appeal.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A certificate of probable cause, abbreviated as CPC, is a legal document that is issued by a judge in a criminal case. It is used to appeal a decision made by the court and is similar to a certificate of appealability.

Example: If a defendant is convicted of a crime and wants to appeal the decision, they may need to obtain a certificate of probable cause. This certificate is issued by a judge and confirms that there is a valid reason for the appeal. For example, if the defendant believes that their constitutional rights were violated during the trial, they may need a certificate of probable cause to appeal the decision.

Explanation: The example illustrates how a certificate of probable cause is used in a criminal case. It shows that the certificate is necessary for a defendant to appeal a decision made by the court. The example also demonstrates that the certificate is issued by a judge and confirms that there is a valid reason for the appeal.
