When a criminal case reaches the court stage, when can a lawyer see it?

According to the relevant provisions of the Criminal Procedure Law, the people's court may apply for marking after accepting it.

Legal basis: Article 38 of the Criminal Procedure Law: From the date when the people's procuratorate examines and prosecutes the case, the defense lawyer may consult, extract and copy the case file. Other defenders may also consult, extract and copy the above materials with the permission of the people's court or the people's procuratorate.
