and yet more.......
Tomissimo, i´m sure you´ll do a good job, reorganizing everything and dividing it. Thanks. I think it is a very interesting topic, since crime and the law is a very current issue ( Unfortunately) |
Interesting list Robin, I'll be sure to work on my CSI and Law and Order Vocab.. :D :thumbsup: (Hope I won' t need it though :worried: )
Just a remark/ question - Maybe some of the native English speakers can verify this? " to be bailed out " As far as I know is often used more in 'normal' situation, i.e. not related to crime (though it will depend on your definition of crime.. :D) usually when someone is getting you out of a tricky or difficult situation (though not necessarily jail related), often as a favour. One friend to another: ' Man I'm so swamped with work there is no way I can make it to Laura' s party to help her like I promised' Other friend: ' Don't worry, I'll go instead and I'll bail you out'. ' I bailed you out last Wednesday saying to your girlfriend you were at my place when you were in fact with Cindy.. now it' s your turn..' There' s also ' to bail (out) on someone'. This means letting someone down, standing someone up. For example: ' You set you would come with me to that boring meeting from work, and now on you' re bailing (out) on me' (adding 'out' I believe is not obligatory). ' My friend said he would pick me up at 9 but he bailed on me, so I guess I need to get there on my own'. Quote:
For actually getting someone out of jail, I believe the term ' making bail' is often used. " I couldn' t go home for Christmas this year because I didn't make bail' Quote:
Being out on bail, in fact does mean you have been bailed out (literally.. :D). In addition to this there are also these two: Quote:
I think maybe more logical would be: ' To be refused bail' i.e. to be denied bail..? Maybe one of the native speakers can say whether 'to bail out' is also used in the jail/ incarceration terms a lot, similar to ' to make bail' ? :) Somebody bail me out here.. :D |
PD
Also in addition to ' to be paroled' : ' To be out on parole'. :) Quote:

well, I think I added all the words. Now it´s David´s job to organize it.
|
Hi DAvid, the table is perfect, you have to change, no guilty and not guilty to the right, Instead of desaparecerse mientras ... it shoud be fugarse..., solicitor is one L only, and add the last contributions. Thanks.
|
is there a difference between non-guilty and not guilty? the Spanish is the same, though
|
I think is it´s the same in E.
|
How can we translate the Grand Jury in Spanish? Do we have an equivalent in SPAIN?
|
No sé, y no. Su papel en EEUU es paralelo a parte del papel del juez durante las primeras fases de una investigación.
|
Se le llama Gran Jurado y se encarga de evaluar los fundamentos para determinar si los acusados de delitos mayores los cometieron.
