I have not studied criminal procedure. Can someone who has please verify that criminal trials are always "bifrucated" into trial and sentencing. I am not confident that this division is technically the same as bifurcation which is explicitly definied in the FRCP. I am concerned that someone [poster] may have seen criminal trials as being demarcated (albiet correctly) and assumed that this is the same as bifurcation. I am unsure if this is the case.

This needs to be sourced by lawyers or people involved in the field that know what they are talking about and can provide legitimate legal expertise. Teamtheo (talk) 03:23, 12 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
