summons trial

A summons case means a case relating to an offence that is not a warrant case, i.e. cases relating to offences punishable with imprisonment of less than two years. In respect of summons cases, there is no need to frame a charge. The court gives the substance of the accusation, which is called "notice", to the accused when the person appears before the court. The court has the power to convert a summons case into a warrant case, if the magistrate thinks that it is in the interest of justice.
