In some countries such as France (where there are 9 jurors), the judgesand jurors decide the case together. In the United States juries decide if the defendant is guilty but sometimes also have a say in what punishment he should receive. Before World War II, Japan also had a jury system, but it was often criticized for the ease with which jurors could be bribed. Now Japan, like South Korea, is a rare example of a modern industrialized coun­try where jurors are not used: all decisions are made by professional judges.

Most countries have special rules for young defendants. Children un­der ten cannot stand trial at all under English law. Juveniles (those under seventeen) are dealt with in special Magistrates Courts known as Juvenile Courts.

A defendant found guilty by the magistrates may appeal against the find­ing or against the punishment to the local Crown Court, and the CrownСourt judge will hear the appealwithout a jury. If a defendant has good reason to believe the magistrates have made a mistake about a point of law, then he may appeal to the High Court.The appeal system is mostly for the benefit of the defendant, but there are cases of the prosecution successfully appealing for a more severepunishment. In Japan it is even possible for the prosecution to appeal that a non-guilty decision be changed to guilty.

Appeals from the Crown Court go first to the High Court and, in spe­cial cases, to the Court of Appeal. Occasionally, a case is carried through this system of appeal all the way to the House of Lords.

In many countries, such as Japan and United States, the highest jurid­ical decisions are made by a Supreme Court.Its members are appointed from the lower courts by the government
