Attention should be paid to criminal cases without lawyers.

If the parties do not hire a lawyer, they should pay attention to the following points: arrive at the designated court on time according to the time and place notified by the court, observe court discipline and pay attention to court skills. In addition to these, the parties need to make preparations before the trial.

I. Matters needing attention when not hiring a lawyer

1, you need to arrive at the designated court on time according to the time and place notified by the court.

Remember, don't be late! Judges in many places are disgusted with this matter, and it is very likely that the plaintiff will withdraw the lawsuit or the defendant will be absent after the time stipulated in the summons. Therefore, in case you can't arrive at the appointed time, you must call the judge and tell him that you are on your way.

2, must abide by the court discipline.

For example, if your mobile phone is turned off or muted, don't record or video with your mobile phone, don't speak at will without the permission of the judge, and don't walk around the court at will. In short, after the judge's hammer is knocked down, the trial work must be conducted under the auspices of the judge, and everything must be done according to the judge's wishes.

3. Pay attention to trial skills.

As a party who has not hired a lawyer, if the case is simple, he can actually handle the trial himself. The key is to follow the judge's instructions. When the judge asks you to make a statement, you make a statement. You don't have to speak when you are not asked to make a statement. Even if the other person's statement annoys you, you don't need to be tit for tat, because it is meaningless to argue with the other person in court. The judge will not only record it, but also be very upset.

When the parties speak, they can face the judge and make eye contact with the judge. There is no need to say anything against the other party, because the parties have to convince the judge, not the other party. On the other hand, directly facing the other party in the statement is easy to cause a quarrel, which is not conducive to the continuation of the trial.

Second, matters needing attention before and after the trial

1. Pre-trial preparation, check the appearance of litigants and check the identity of litigants. Verify the receipt of litigation materials.

2, announced the rules of the court and the court discipline. The specific contents of court rules and court discipline shall be subject to the relevant provisions. All personnel should turn off the ringtones of mobile phones and pagers.

3. The judge enters the court and reports the preparation before the trial.

4. Check and confirm the identity of the participants in the proceedings. After the two sides confirmed that there was no disagreement, they declared that the participants in the proceedings were in compliance with the law and allowed to participate in the trial activities of this case.

If you don't hire a lawyer in court, you need to prepare a list of evidence yourself; Write clearly the content and purpose of the evidence, and prepare your own views and relevant legal basis. At the same time, it is necessary to clarify the legal process, obey the arrangement of the judge, and carry out a series of procedures to avoid blind handling.
