Trial Chamber

A Trial Chamber is a panel of judges in an international or judicial court responsible for overseeing a legal case. They evaluate evidence, hear arguments from both sides, and make rulings on legal issues throughout the trial. In cases involving complex, serious crimes, like those at the International Criminal Court, the Trial Chamber ensures the proceedings are fair and that a just decision is reached based on the law and facts presented. Essentially, it functions as the decision-making body during the trial process.
