Definition: quyền của bị cáo làm nhân chứng cho vụ án của mình.
A more thorough explanation: Competence of the accused refers to the mental capacity and ability of an individual facing criminal charges to understand the nature of the legal proceedings against them, to assist in their own defense, and to make informed decisions regarding their case. If a court determines that an accused person is not competent, they may be deemed unfit to stand trial and may require mental health treatment or other interventions before legal proceedings can continue.
Example: The court will assess the competence of the accused to stand trial before proceeding with the case.
