The goal is to hold the trial within seven days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To make scheduling easier, other judges can step in if the assigned judge isn\u2019t available, and both parties should be flexible, even considering different legal counsel if needed. If no suitable time is found, the case returns to the regular trial process.

Should the motion be accepted, the Courts will attempt to get to trial within 7 days of the motion. Either party may motion for an expedited trial, however all parties must consent to it to move forward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All details on how and when to motion for an expedited trial and specific guidelines can be found <a href=\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1n-GRG0-6x3jRUBYNNoistQyGbzgE91q7lqNVW0z9Qwk\/edit?tab=t.0#heading=h.sfixfljadsd\">HERE<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To clarify, bench trials right after an individual is arrested are still able to be done, this procedure is simply another option for citizens to take. We hope this press release educates the general public on this new procedure, and that it enables the justice system to be even more efficient when possible.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kind Regards,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com\/docsz\/AD_4nXc68Mn43Xmu_M8eFMF0Cg9uux1jJa-d0lgqZyVpGfr3YbyHvVTwDw5-6TkyOorJM8nAvzBsycKHAXu_b50ZluvWmC4d9SmlLuOhbMjug3O8p6bGcMDOVdqJnSruJ6VwPAcuthZexQ?key=fYNkW0MNTuDv6Dwe04d1iLLa\" alt=\"\" style=\"width:355px;height:auto\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Chief Justice Rajesh Gupta<br>Supreme Court of the State of San Andreas<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator alignwide has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div data-wp-interactive=\"core\/file\" class=\"wp-block-file\"><object data-wp-bind--hidden=\"!state.hasPdfPreview\" hidden class=\"wp-block-file__embed\" data=\"https:\/\/weazel-news.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Expedited-Trial-Press-Release-20250324.pdf\" type=\"application\/pdf\" style=\"width:100%;height:970px\" aria-label=\"Embed of Expedited Trial Press Release - 20250324.\"><\/object><a id=\"wp-block-file--media-f52fdfc0-1a45-49f8-a63a-5ee8cdea8a00\" href=\"https:\/\/weazel-news.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Expedited-Trial-Press-Release-20250324.pdf\">Expedited Trial Press Release &#8211; 20250324<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/weazel-news.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Expedited-Trial-Press-Release-20250324.pdf\" class=\"wp-block-file__button wp-element-button\" download aria-describedby=\"wp-block-file--media-f52fdfc0-1a45-49f8-a63a-5ee8cdea8a00\">Download<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Monday, March 24th, 2025, Chief Justice Rajesh Gupta issued a press release announcing a new expedited trial procedure to help cases move through the courts faster.
