If a crime is serious, the accused can elect trial by a higher court. Cases of murder, or attempted murder, and rape or attempted rape are tried in a supreme court," Mr. Kelly said. PRELIMINARY HEARING He said usually a preliminary hearing is held to investigate the charge and perpetuate evidence. "This gives the defense counsel a chance to sce the crown attor- ney's case and allows the ma- gistrate to see If there is suffic- ent evidence to bring the accus- ed before a higher court."
