Compare two trials. If possible, compare a murder trial with one involving another major felony. Include the parties represented in each trial (i.e., plaintiff and defendant).

Write 350- to 700-word comparison in which you:

Summarize what each trial was about.
Identify the type of court the trials were held in (refer to Ch. 1 for types of courts in the United States).
Describe as many of the steps of each trial as you can (refer to Ch. 13 for the steps/process).
Explain the similarities and differences between the two trials you selected.
Identify as many of the actors of each trial as you can who played a role in the steps of the trial process. What were their roles?

Cite a minimum of 2 sources (one source for each trial).

Format your paper as a Word document according to APA guidelines.

Each case that you discuss needs to have been a criminal trial in the United States. For this assignment it is unacceptable to discuss a case outside the United States, a civil case, a case that was resolved by a plea bargain, or a case that has not yet gone to trial.

Quoted language does not count toward the minimum word count.

Submit your assignment.
