In cases other than those assigned to the Court`s electronic records system, closed files generally remain here for a relatively short period of time after closure before they need to be sent for retention.

The accused may “waive” the right to a speedy trial. This means that the defendant agrees to conduct the trial after the required time limit has expired (also known as the “waiver period”). But even if the accused waives the time limit, the law stipulates that the trial must begin within 10 days of the trial date. It is very important that defendants seek legal advice before giving up time. Defendants in criminal cases (other than violations) have the right to ask a jury of peers to decide their guilt or innocence. Therefore, accused must decide before trial whether they want to hold a jury trial (where the jury decides whether the defendant is guilty or not) or a trial (where the judge decides). Usually, accused choose a jury trial because they want a jury to hear the evidence and decide their guilt. But sometimes there may be circumstances in which a defense attorney recommends a trial without a jury. “Bail” is money or property that a defendant makes by promising to return for future hearing dates. In determining the amount of bail, the judge takes into account the seriousness of the crime, whether the defendant poses a risk to the community, and whether he or she poses a “flight risk” and is likely to flee.

If no formal charges are laid, a case can be closed in several ways. Access to the file is also possible via the publicly accessible terminals of the registry of the court where the case was brought.
