When motions in criminal litigation can be filed?
Motions in criminal litigation can be filed at various stages of the process, including before trial, during trial, and after trial. Common pre-trial motions include motions to suppress evidence, motions to dismiss the charges, and motions for discovery. During the trial, motions for a mistrial or motions to exclude certain evidence may be filed. After the trial, motions for a new trial or motions for sentencing modifications can be filed.
