Journal Entry #10 How does the legal system work in your country?

Today, I was selected as a possible juror (someone who performs jury duty). However, the court decided that they already had enough jurors. Part of me wishes that I could have participated in the case to see what it is like in the courtroom. However, part of me is glad that I don't have to miss class (because of my wonderful students and also the money).

In America, the legal system includes lawyers, judges, and jurors. How does the legal system work in your country? Who decides whether a person is innocent or guilty?

In our country, there are judge, secretary, lawyer, prosecutor, and bailiff in the court. The judge is open. It meas the court's door is open, so you can go in anytime and be a hearer. But in some special cases like privacy, indecent assault, etc., the judge think it can't be heard for protecting someone, so the door is closed. Also, the judge decides whether a person is innocent or guilty. If the result is not accetpable to the defendant, it can be appealed to a higher court. If the result is still not accetpable to the defendant, it can be appealed to a highest court. And it is the final one.
