You plead innocent and can't produce the money?

In the United States, according to Amnesty International at least 16 of those executed between 1985 and 2001 had been defended by lawyers who were incompetent or who failed to mount an adequate case for the defence.

AMs will get the final vote on the question of what they should be called when they debate the legislation.

2.4 The complainant argues that he has exhausted domestic remedies.

She contends that the criteria established in article 3 of the Convention have been fulfilled.

Counsel argued that the State party had not supplied this information to the Committee.

It is thus alleged that the right to legal counsel was violated.

He contends that article 5, paragraph 2, of the Covenant precludes the State party from contending that First Nations do not, in international law, have such status, for it has been conferred on them by domestic law.

The authors contend that the appeal court wrongly believed they did not want to adduce any evidence.

4.3 Thirdly, the State party argues that domestic remedies were not exhausted.

The authors contend that the Decree is null and void from a constitutional point of view.

It has been alleged that the trial might be linked to his work as a human rights defender.

Furthermore, defence lawyers allegedly do not have access to court documents, nor do they have adequate time to prepare a defence for their clients.

Firstly, the State party argues that a corporation does not enjoy the rights protected by the Covenant.

4.5 Fourthly, the State party argues that the authors' claims are not supported by, or do not correspond to, rights protected under the Covenant.

The author contends therefore that the violation of which he claims to be a victim is indeed attributable to the State party.

The State party argues that in his absence, the court was able to examine the case on the basis of the written arguments provided.

It contends that the extracts from newspapers referred to in the author's comments cannot be viewed as a substantiation of his claims about his innocence.

4.2 The State party further argues that the Committee is not competent to consider alleged violations of rights that are not set forth in the Covenant.

They claim to have been the victims of judicial errors and violations of the right to a defence and the principle of adversarial proceedings.

4.4 The State party rejects the author's argument that the application of section 101a reduced his possibilities to defend himself before the Committee, arguing that the guarantees of article 14 of the Covenant only apply to appeals at the national level.

4.6 The State party asserts that the communication does not meet the minimum requirements for compatibility with article 22 of the Convention.

4.3 The State party argues that there is no indication that the reservation itself is inadmissible.

His trial allegedly lasted a few minutes and he had no access to a defence lawyer.

Thus, the State party argues, no such obligation may be inferred from article 9.

In his cassation appeal against this judgement, the author contended that his defence relating to the tapped telephone calls had till not been responded to.

10.6 As to the State party's argument that he can fish with a recreational licence, the author asserts that he is not a recreational fisher.

7.2 Contrary to his initial submission, the author now contends that no charges have been filed against the suspects of the alleged assault to date.

The responses to the list of issues and questions and the reports asserted that women could raise the plea of unconstitutionality in cases of alleged discrimination.

And he defended his unusual approach in talking about relations with Kim.

11.8 Counsel argues that the reduction in sentence does not affect how the complainant has been treated, is being and will be treated until release.

2.4 The author contends that charges against him were fabricated, and that accusations against him were very general.

Some participants argued that oftentimes foreign direct investment did not benefit the poor.

8.2 It argues that the author is an Australian citizen permanently resident in Australia.

2.5 On appeal, the author's defence counsel argued that not all records of the tapped telephone calls, which should have been destroyed pursuant to section 125h, paragraph 2, had in fact been destroyed.

According to the authors, the fact that the provincial court concluded that the questions which their defence counsel proposed to put to the defence experts were superfluous means that the court acknowledged that there had been no equality in the questioning of the defence experts.

It contends that the complainant's return to Bangladesh would not be in violation of article 3 of the Convention.

The right to a legal defence, as set forth in article 8 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, was also allegedly violated.

The source also stated that Ms. Bakhmina was not allowed to have a defence lawyer present during her interrogation.

It is submitted that the lack of preparation of the defence led to a failure to properly cross examine the prosecution witnesses, to lack of communication between the authors and their lawyers and to the lack of attendance of witnesses for the defence.

It argues that the complainant should have appealed against the royal decrees of 1999 that granted the pardons.

The complainant's case proves it, the State party argues, as his curriculum vitae shows.

In any event, counsel argues that the complainant's present condition does not establish how he was treated in the past.

4.11 Lastly, the State party argues that the complainant may apply for permanent residence on humanitarian grounds.

He argues that, ultimately, any discrimination can be undone by downgrading the position of the group that is treated more favourably.
