==The Role and Responsibility of a Criminal Defense Lawyer==

The criminal justice system is viewed as a three-part system  consisting of the judge and jury, the prosecutor, and the defense  lawyer.  Each part of this system has a specific role.  The role of the judge and jury is to render an impartial decision based solely on the  facts presented and the laws applicable to the charged offense.  In order to decide impartially, the judge and jury must be able to hear arguments from both sides.  The prosecutor's role is to argue the side of the state that seeks to prove the defendant's guilt.  The defense  lawyer's role is to argue on behalf of the defendant.  The defendant has  no burden of proof.  That is, the defendant need not prove his  innocence.  It is enough simply to point out ways in which the state has  not established guilt (e.g., an eyewitness has poor eyesight or an  accuser has a motive to lie).
