hi there I'm Jason with the Self Represented Litigant's Society and these
are common legal terms that begin with the letter E..... Election is a making of
illegal choice and it's commonly heard in the criminal context in the canadian
system election by the accused in the criminal context is essentially when the
accused gets to make a choice about whether or not to have a trial in front
of a judge alone or a judge and a jury selection by the crowd in the criminal
context is when the crown elects with a hybrid offense so I hybrid offense being
a charge that can either be an indictable offence or can be proceeded
as a summary offense so if if the crowd is given that decision that's the
election on how to proceed with the charge so the crown elects to proceed
indicted Lior summarily in the criminal context there's one other procedure in
the criminal context that I'd like to address that involves election by the
accused which happens after an election by the ground so in this circumstance
you have been charged as the accused with a hybrid of fence outside the
limitation period for a summary offense so for instance let's say assault and a
summary offense limitation period is six months and you've been charged at the
seven-month period the crown would proceed indictable e to charge you that
that's just to get the charge laid up on you because they can't lay a summary
offense actors after six months so charges a hybrid offense
it allows them to now go to the court and elect to proceed summarily if on the
condition that the excuse if he accused now waves their right to the limitation
period so you've been charged with assault against the crowd was to proceed
summarily with it although they need your approval now to get a waiver of the
limitation the six-month limitation period now once the crowd wants to ask
you to waive that that that legal choice or the election now is the accused court
to say whether or not they want to proceed with the charged in deadly or
summarily so essentially by waiving the limitation period you're giving up here
right now to proceed indictable which could be a strategic move on the
defense's part to endure something is to sign a legal document or formally
approve something and endorsement typically is a written decision judge
typically endorsements will contain the reasons for the decision by the judge
enforcement is where one party takes measures under the law or with
permission of the court to compel the other party to obey a court order this
treatment is typically heard in the criminal context in Canada and it is
used for the enforcement of a forfeited recognizance due to failure to comply
with the conditions agreed to so for instance if someone's on bail and one of
their sureties or persons who agreed to supervise
and keep the accused person within the court conditions given to them in their
recognizance or bail conditions if this person where to fail to perform their
duties or they intentionally ignore their duties that they agreed to when
they when the bail conditions were given to the accused this treatment can be
used to go after that
surety for the money that they owe or at the crown says the data oh the
government for breaking the conditions for the accused breaking the conditions
this is only when it has been proven that the accused has broken the bail
conditions or the recognizance this is a separate hearing once a conviction has
been entered by by way of a guilty finding on a breach of the accused bail
conditions and at the separate hearing typically the crown will go after
approximately 10% of the money or value put up by the surety when the accused
was given the original bill conditions so if you're acting as a surety for
someone who is accused of a crime and they are out on bail and they break
their conditions and you guarantee to the court $5,000 44 promise to the court
that you will supervise that person and make sure that they break their
condition they won't they won't break their conditions if you've put up $5,000
you typically haven't put that up in the physical sense and the crowd usually
will go after approximately 10% of that $5,000 in this treatment hearing
and equalization payment in family law cases is a payment from one married
spouse to the other to ensure that both parties receive an equal share of the
net family property they accumulated during the marriage evidence are
statements information or things that are used to prove or disprove an alleged
fact there are many types of evidence and I go over a few derivative evidence
is evidence that discovered by using illegally obtained evidence this
evidence may be found to be inadmissible direct evidence is evidence that's based
on personal knowledge or observation that if true proves a fact expert
evidence is opinion evidence given by a person whom the court finds to be a
qualified person to act as an expert hearsay evidence is evidence that's
based on what someone else has told the witness or second-hand evidence hearsay
evidence is often not admissible in court
viva voce evidence is a it as a Latin term but it's essentially evidence that
is given orally as opposed to written evidence admissible evidence is evidence
that is relevant and is of such a kind that the court will receive it or
accepted character evidence is evidence that shows the kind of person someone is
with all of these types of evidence there are rules and case law that will
guide the litigant on how each of these evidence each of these pieces of
evidence or types of evidence can be used or admitted circumstantial evidence
is evidence which creates an inference that a particular fact exists
corroborating evidence is evidence that strengthens or confirms other evidence
demonstrative evidence is physical evidence that can be
scene and inspected forensic evidence made popular by television shows like

chemicals tissue traces or impressions left at a crime scene examination is the
questioning a witness under oath or affirmation direct examination or
examination in chief is the questioning of a witness in a trial or other
proceeding conducted by the party who called the witness to testify this is
usually referred to as a friendly witness for the person who's calling the
witness an example of a direct examination question would be what color
was the sky cross-examination on the other hand is the examination of a
witness by an opposing party or their counsel to develop or test the truth of
the evidence given by the witness during direct examination suggestions or a
suggestion put to a witness in cross-examination is a common form of
cross-examination and it could look something like the sky was blue wasn't
it or I'm going to suggest to you that the sky was blue would you agree or
disagree there are two examples of a suggestion used as a question to a
witness in cross-examination it should be noted that suggestions or any type of
cross examined technique is usually frowned upon and not allowed during
direct examination unless it's on a non contentious issue
examination for discovery or sometimes it's referred to just as discovery in
civil proceedings is a process by which the parties to an action question one
another or another person under oath or affirmation on the facts and issues a
record or a transcript is produced of the questions and answers given this can
then be used in the preceding a trial it's good to know that in these types of
questionings there is commonly no direct examination of the person who is being
questioned or deposed the questions are usually put to the person who's being
examined by the opposing lawyer or party and that takes the form of
cross-examination in family court
questioning is the you is the term used for is the is the term used for this
process it's also referred to as a deposition expert a is a Latin term
meaning made in the absence of the opposing party in certain circumstances

other party this is very limited though as in Canada we have an adversarial

to the other side and expert is a person who has developed a skill and knowledge
on the subject and is accepted by the court as being able to form opinions on
evidence presented to assist the judge not every person who may be considered
to be an expert such as a doctor or a scientist is considered by the court to
be an expert this person who that one party wants to call as an expert has to
properly qualified them first
in a war deer or a separate hearing to prove to the judge that they are an
expert as with most things in the Canadian legal system the expertise or
the expert opinion during the qualification stage can be challenged by
the other side

the matter
