peer agreement (net): -1process of questioning by which members of a jury Explanation: http://www.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic/631918/voir-dire voir dire, in law, process of questioning by which members of a jury are selected from a large panel, or venire, of prospective jurors. The veniremen are questioned by the judge or by the attorneys for the respective parties. The voir dire attempts to detect bias or preconceived notions of guilt or innocence on the part of the veniremen. The parties, including the prosecution in a criminal case, may challenge potential jurors and dismiss an unlimited number for cause. They also have a limited number of peremptory challenges, which enable them to dismiss a juror without giving a reason. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 23 λεπτά (2010-11-01 14:14:52 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Etymology From Anglo-French voir, from Old French (true) + dire (to speak). |

la dire Explanation: voir dire = du vieux jargon juridique qui signifie exactement la même chose que "la dire". Il faut lire la phrase ainsi : Les assignés voir recevoir la présente demande en la forme et, au fond la dire fondée et justifiée, Il s'agit de la demande. J'espère que cela vous rendra la traduction plus aisée. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 6 heures (2010-11-01 20:36:32 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Je vois "voir recevoir" que j'ai recopié ! Ce devrait être "se voient recevoir" ... Je me demande d'où sort ce texte ... |
