Qué contiene
Resumen con IA In certain criminal cases, children who are witnesses have the right to refuse meetings or interviews that involve direct contact with the person accused of the crime. This rule applies to most serious offenses but does not include simple misdemeanors. It allows young witnesses to avoid interacting with the defendant before their case goes to trial.
