A quick definition of new trial:
A new trial is when a court decides to have another trial after the first one is finished. This can happen if there were mistakes made during the first trial or if new evidence is found. Sometimes, a new trial is ordered by a higher court if they think the first trial was not fair. During a trial, a judge or a jury listens to evidence and decides who is right and who is wrong. A trial can be open to the public or closed, depending on the situation.A more thorough explanation:
Definition: A postjudgment retrial or reexamination of some or all of the issues determined in an earlier judgment. The trial court may order a new trial by motion of a party or on the court's own initiative. Also, when an appellate court reverses the trial court's judgment, it may remand the case to the trial court for a new trial on some or all of the issues on which the reversal is based.
- If a defendant is found guilty in a criminal trial, they may request a new trial if they believe there were errors in the previous trial that affected the outcome.
- In a civil trial, if new evidence is discovered after the trial that could have affected the outcome, the court may order a new trial to consider the new evidence.
These examples illustrate how a new trial can be requested or ordered in both criminal and civil cases if there are concerns about the fairness or accuracy of the previous trial.
