Can someone explain

[Idiotathome79]

Hi

I am watching the live proceedings of a friend on a court , I don't understand some of the things I am seeing .
It said the trail was ineffective ,then the case was adjourned , now the prosecuting is opening .

I don't understand any of it does any one here .

Which country is this? How are you watching a live trial or are you looking at a report?

I don't understand any of your post, so no.

A report sorry I didn't mean I am seeing it , it's in the lawyer page

I am uk

The prosecution will not be doing an opening (speech?) if they trial has been adjourned. Did they give a new date for the trial?

Can you post a link?

Which parts of the trial dont you understand

Me neither if I m honest ,
So the court case is on law pages
I wanted to see how they were getting on them realised I know nothing .

It did the usual jury sworn in etc then prosecuting opens
They then said it was trail ineffective so I thought that meant they would return him to remand or release him till a trail dates been set up .
But then they started opening again!! I

Confused

Sorry if I am making no sense

Were they referring to a previously collapsed trial?

I can't post a link as it shows friends name etc

This is what I am seeing

The reason the friends in remand is he didn't attend his first case for what ever reason .

Which case is it, what do you mean by law pages.

I meant first court date

They had a break for lunch it seems to me.

Ahh so is that what ineffective means ! I thought it meant something totally different

Court clerk has possibly recorded it incorrectly. Or they thought they didn't have time and then rearranged things so they did (possibly couldn't get a new date within the custody time limit).
They could have given him some time with his barrister thinking he might change his plea and then he didn't.
I suspect it was recorded incorrectly.

You have literally linked here to a full explanation of what the terms mean...if you click on trial ineffective, it tells what it is.

Ineffective usually means didn't go ahead in those circumstances.

Ok guys thank you

It looks like it tells you live timings from court. For example see attached screenshot from a live trial in Plymouth today.

In your case, I suspect they've clicked the wrong link to show ineffective trial when it should just have been an adjournment (ie lunch).

I read that as they simply adjourned (paused) for lunch...
