counsel tables
Counsel tables are designated areas in a courtroom where legal representatives, such as lawyers or attorneys, sit during a trial. These tables provide a space for counsel to organize their materials, communicate with clients, and present their case to the judge and jury.
Typically, there are two counsel tables: one for the prosecution and one for the defense. Each table is equipped with necessary tools, such as legal documents, evidence, and technology for presenting information. The arrangement helps maintain order and facilitates the legal process during court proceedings.
