What does it mean when the Prosecutor refers my case to court?

Hello,

I have a criminal case (cheque case) in Ajman. I met with the Prosecutor to hand over my evidence.

Now I see that the status says the Prosecutor has referred my case to the court. What does that mean?

The referral of your case by the Prosecutor indicates that they believe there is enough merit for judicial consideration and that formal legal proceedings will commence shortly.

You mean they disregarded my evidence and found me guilty in the criminal case (cheque case)?

3 Jan 2025, 06:24

The fact that your case has been referred to the court means that it is now in the judicial process, and your evidence will be reviewed within that context.

It does not automatically imply a guilty finding or that your evidence was ignored.

It’s essential to prepare for the upcoming court proceedings, possibly with legal counsel, to present your defense.

I received an SMS notification from the Public Prosecution that the hearing will be held remotely.

However, I also received a call from the Ajman Court stating that I need to attend physically and that I am not allowed to bring a lawyer.

This has left me confused about whether I should attend remotely or physically. Also, why am I not allowed to bring a lawyer?

You are facing confusion due to conflicting information about your upcoming hearing from both the public prosecution and the Ajman court.

To clarify the situation, you should prioritize the court's requirement for physical attendance, as this instruction typically takes precedence. The remote hearing notification may not apply to your specific case.

As for not being allowed to bring a lawyer, this could be due to certain court rules or the nature of the hearing, so it's best to contact the court directly for clarification on your attendance and the lawyer ban.

In short, plan to attend the hearing in person while seeking confirmation and explanations about the remote option and legal representation.

So your advice is to attend the hearing alone and seek confirmation about whether I can bring a lawyer? I'm afraid that if I go alone, I won't be able to defend myself properly.

3 Jan 2025, 07:07

Yes, based on the information you've received, you should plan to attend the hearing alone as instructed by the court.

However, when you arrive, you can seek confirmation from the court officials about whether you are allowed to bring a lawyer or if any exceptions can be made.

If you're concerned about defending yourself properly, it’s crucial to express those concerns during your visit and ask for guidance on how to proceed.

Consider preparing any points you want to make in advance to help you during the hearing.

Yes, it means that the case will go to trial. The prosecutor has reviewed the evidence and has decided that there is enough evidence to proceed with a trial in court.

The court will now review the case and make a decision on whether to proceed with the trial or dismiss the case.

It is important to consult with a lawyer for further guidance on your specific case.

When the prosecutor refers your cheque case to the court in Ajman, it means that the prosecutor has reviewed your case and the evidence you provided and has decided that there is sufficient evidence to proceed with the case in court.

The court will now hear the case and determine the outcome. You will be notified of the court date and time, and you will have the opportunity to present your defense and evidence to the judge.

It is important to note that even though you have paid the borrowed money, the fact that you issued a blank cheque can still be considered as an important aspect of this case.

The court will consider all of the evidence and circumstances of the case before making a decision.

Dear Questioner,

Thanks for your inquiry!

In the UAE, when a criminal case (such as a cheque case) is referred by the prosecutor to the court, it means that the prosecutor has completed their initial investigation and has determined that there is sufficient evidence or grounds to move forward with the case in the judicial system.

Here’s what it typically means for your case:

- Case Transfer to Court:

The prosecutor has decided that the case should be formally heard in court. This happens after reviewing the evidence and considering whether the matter should proceed to trial.

The prosecutor's referral to court essentially means that your case will now be examined by a judge who will determine the outcome.

- Court Hearings:

The court will set a date for the first hearing. During the hearing, both parties (the prosecution and the defense) will present their arguments, evidence, and witnesses. You may be required to attend court hearings as the case progresses.

- Potential Outcomes:

The court will evaluate all the evidence presented, including the evidence you handed over to the prosecutor. Depending on the findings, the court could either dismiss the case, rule in favor of the defendant, or impose penalties such as fines, imprisonment, or other legal consequences.

- Legal Representation:

It’s advisable to have legal representation during the court proceedings. We can help ensure that your side is properly presented and can guide you through the legal process.

In summary, the referral of your case to court means that the legal process is advancing and you will now have a court hearing where the judge will make decisions based on the evidence presented.

Dear questioner,

The case has been transferred to the court for further procedures. As per the new law, cheque bounce matters are no longer criminal, so it is not the Prosecution Department but the court that has jurisdiction.

We can assist you in filing the objection and submitting the evidence to the court.
