Will the judge convict me on the first day?
I have been summoned to appear in the CJM court on 6th March as an accused in a case. The sections involved are 403, 406, and 408. The FIR was filed in September 2021. There is evidence against me, so will the judge convict me and send me to prison on the first day itself?
No, the judge will not convict or send you to prison on the first day. The first hearing is usually procedural, where the charges will be explained, and bail may be considered if not already granted. If you plead not guilty, the case will proceed to trial, where evidence and witnesses will be examined over multiple hearings. Conviction happens only after a full trial. However, if there is strong evidence, the court may frame charges and set a trial schedule. Consult a good lawyer to protect your rights and secure bail if needed. Legal representation is crucial in such cases.
Sir, it is unlikely the judge will convict you and send you to prison on the first day. The first hearing is usually for procedural matters, like confirming the charges and setting dates for further hearings. The trial will take time, and your lawyer will have the chance to present your defense. If convicted, sentencing usually happens later. It’s important to have legal representation to guide you through the process. For further legal assistance contact us on our helpline number.
