PROSECUTOR ATTORNEYS

In a criminal case, the prosecutor is the attorney representing the government who presents (i.e.: prosecutes) the case against the defendant in an attempt to prove him guilty of the charges for which he was arrested.

DEFENSE ATTORNEYS

Defense attorneys counsel people accused of a crime about their legal rights and options and confer with their clients to decide what course of action to take. Attorneys then act on behalf of their clients by arguing their innocence or making a case for as lenient a sentence as possible.

JUDGE

Judges play many roles. They interpret the law, assess the evidence presented, and control how hearings and trials unfold in their courtrooms. Most important of all, judges are impartial decision-makers in the pursuit of justice. The judge remains above the fray, providing an independent and impartial assessment of the facts and how the law applies to those facts.
