Technical defense
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Remove ads
A technical defense is one used by a defendant to seek acquittal based on the technicalities of the law.[1] It is in contrast to a political defense which seeks to use political arguments to persuade a jury to nullify. Sometimes the desire to convince a jury on political and moral grounds is so strong that political defendants will reject a potent technical defense.[2]
