The prosecution process occurs when the prosecutor receives and reviews the evidence of the case and creates a formal criminal charge. These charges will be brought about in one of two ways. The first is incitement by a grand jury, where the prosecution presents the case and all evidence to a grand jury. This grand jury then decides whether is enough hard evidence to permit a formal accusation. In the case of an information, the prosecution will present the case to a judge, and the judge will determine if there is enough sufficient evidence to permit an official charge. I either instance when the formal accusation is brought down upon the accused, they will then enter the next step in the process.
