In criminal cases, the parties themselves can't read newspapers, so they can only consult their attorneys. According to the law, defense lawyers can consult, extract and copy the case file materials from the date when the people's procuratorate examines and prosecutes the case, and other defenders can consult, extract and copy the above materials with the permission of the people's court and the people's procuratorate. The scope of the defender's marking is all kinds of materials in the file transferred by the investigation organ to the people's procuratorate and the people's procuratorate to the people's court. It includes all evidence materials and litigation documents to prove whether the suspect and the defendant are guilty and the seriousness of the crime.
