prosecution table
A "prosecution table" is a visual tool used in legal settings, particularly during trials. It organizes and displays information related to the prosecution's case against a defendant. This table typically includes details such as evidence, witness lists, and timelines, helping attorneys present their arguments clearly and effectively.
In a courtroom, the prosecution table is often situated near the prosecutor, who represents the government or state in criminal cases. This setup allows for easy access to important documents and materials, facilitating a smoother trial process. The table plays a crucial role in ensuring that the prosecution can effectively communicate its case to the judge and jury.
