Ref: article 639 ( cheque law)
Everybody has a right to be defended, and every lawyer has a duty to defend people accused. And my office is to defend him, to discuss the accusation point by point, as I think this is a normal step in a democracy.
- Mario Puzo
Accused Presence in Court
In all of criminal offense and cases the present of accused is one of the requirement.
In case the accused does not attend with the lawyer in any of the hearing then the court will decide on the case without hear the defense’s statement.
