| 单词 | Joint trial |
| 释义 | 合併審訊 A trial in which two or more persons accused of the same, or a related, offence are tried together: R v Lockett & Ors [1914] 2 KB 720 (CCA). Generally, where the accused are charged with a conspiracy or an offence committed under a common purpose, they should be tried together. However, the court should grant separate trials where there would be a possibility of injustice, such as where the evidence against one accused was not admissible against the other and a firm and clear direction to the jury would not cure prejudice to the other accused: R v Lake (1977) 64 Cr App R 172; R v Chau Wai Keung & Anor [1993] 2 HKC 332 (CA). Notwithstanding any other law, especially the Magistrates Ordinance (Cap 227), where it is alleged that two or more persons have committed offences against specified provisions, in the same place and at about the same time, the changes for such an offence may be tried together: Dangerous Drugs Ordinance (Cap 134) s 41. See also Accomplice; Co-accused; Joint indictment; Unsworn statement. 兩個或兩個以上的人犯下相同或有關的罪行可一併接受審訊的審判：R v Lockett & Ors [1914] 2 KB 720 (CCA)。一般而言，當被告人被控告串謀或因共同的目的而犯下罪行，該等被告人須一併接受審訊。但是，如有不公正情況的可能性，如針對某被告的證據對另一被告屬不得被接納及給予陪審團確定而清楚的指示不足以糾正對另一被告的不利，法庭可授予分開審訊：R v Lake (1977) 64 Cr App R 172；R v Chau Wai Keung & Anor [1993] 2 HKC 332 （上訴法院）。凡指控2個或2個以上的人曾在相同地方及約在相同時間觸犯特定條文的罪行，對該等人犯罪的檢控可一併審訊：《危險藥物條例》（第134章）第41條。另見 Accomplice; Co-accused; Joint indictment; Unsworn statement。 |
