condamnare prin procedura restransa Explanation: summary conviction=summary (proceedings)conviction Condamnare intr-o procedura restransa,de catre un judecator, fara consultarea unor jurati, sau proces cu jurati. In legislatia mai multor state, printre care SUA, Canada, UK, cu mari sau mici diferente, se clasifica delicte foarte grave si delicte minore. In UK, de exemplu, sunt: a) infractiuni foarte grave („very serious offences"). Astfel de infractiuni sunt: omorul; omorul cu premeditare; rapirea; violul; tâlharia etc. b) infractiuni grave („summary offences"), cum ar fi: furtul, furtul prin efractie, ranirile premeditate etc; c) infractiuni minore („either way offences") Crimele din prima categorie sunt judecate de instante („crown courts") formate dintr-un judecator si un juriu. Crimele din a doua categorie sunt judecate de trei magistrati civili, numiti judecatori de pace, magistrati de juriu. Infractiunile din ultima categorie sunt judecate, dupa caz, de magistrati sau de judecatori în tribunale. In Canada, the things are like this: “Canada, contrary to the United States, did not retain the common distinction between misdemeanours and felonies and, instead, crimes in Canada are classified as either indictable offences or offences punishable on summary conviction” "All summary conviction offences must be tried in what the Canadian Criminal Code, at §785, defines as summary conviction court, usually a lower-level court such as a provincial court, as opposed to a higher court, such as a Supreme or Court of Queen's bench court. Justice Salhany writes: "A summary conviction court is generally composed of a provincial court judge or justice of the peace sitting alone ...." http://duhaime.org/LegalDictionary/S/Summaryconvictionoffenc... In USA : "there are certain minor or petty offenses that may be proceeded against summarily, and without a jury" and which are codified in 18 U.S.C. § 19. Any crime punishable by more than six months imprisonment must have some means for a jury trial. Contempt of court is considered a prerogative of the court, as "the requirement of a jury does not apply to 'contempts committed in disobedience of any lawful writ, process, order, rule, decree, or command entered in any suit or action brought or prosecuted in the name of, or on behalf of, the United States." "Some states (Virginia) provide that in all offenses must at some point grant to the defendant a jury trial if they request it, meaning that one could obtain a jury trial in some states even for a parking ticket" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Summary_conviction NOTA: In legislatia romaneasca nu exista ceva similar, dar putem avea nevoie de aceasta expresie cand traducem articole referitoare la UK, USA, Canada, etc. Example sentence(s):
