Simple trial procedure In accordance with the provisions of the Criminal Procedure Code, injury and insult is a form of trial applied in certain crimes. The simple trial procedure is regulated in the Code of Criminal Procedure 251. The simple trial procedure provides a faster and faster decision-making process than the ordinary trial procedure. If this trial procedure is applied, the resulting penalty of the accused is reduced by one quarter (1/4).
After the acceptance of the indictment, if the court that will make the trial decides that the dispute at hand is a crime subject to simple trial, it will apply this procedure. After the court has given a hearing date, it will no longer be possible to proceed to the simple trial. Since the decision is made without a hearing in this trial procedure, it should not be ignored that it may be in favor of the accused.
If the accused objects to the simple trial procedure for any reason and demands ordinary trial, the court will evaluate the situation and give a hearing date. It should also be noted that if the defendant objects to the sentence specified in the court decision given in the simple procedure, if the court will impose a sentence, a reduction of one quarter will not be applied.
