stay of proceedings Explanation: "ONTARIO WOMEN'S JUSTICE NETWORK - Glossary ... stay of proceedings: Sometimes the judge will decide not to continue with a trial. This is called a stay. The accused person is free to go, but the charge has not been dropped or withdrawn. Proceedings could be started up again at some future time under certain conditions." ( http://www.owjn.org/info/glossar4.htm ) "WIKIPEDIA Stay of proceedings A stay of proceedings is a ruling by the court in civil and criminal procedure, halting further legal process in a trial. The court can subsequently lift the stay and resume proceedings. However, a stay is sometimes used as a device to postpone proceedings indefinitely." ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stay_of_proceedings ) |
