Többírós

Többírós is a Hungarian term that translates to "multiple judges" or "panel of judges." It refers to a judicial system where a case is heard and decided by more than one judge, as opposed to a single judge presiding over the proceedings. This practice is common in higher courts and appellate courts in Hungary, as well as in many other legal systems around the world. The primary purpose of having multiple judges is to ensure a more thorough and balanced review of legal matters, reducing the likelihood of individual bias and increasing the overall accuracy and fairness of judicial decisions. Each judge on the panel typically has the opportunity to review the evidence, hear arguments from both sides, and deliberate on the outcome. Decisions are then reached through a majority vote. The specific number of judges on a panel can vary depending on the court and the complexity of the case. This collegial approach to judging is a fundamental aspect of many justice systems, aiming to uphold the principle of due process and the rule of law.
