FCLaw Partner on the news: OPINION | CRIMINAL TRIALS IN MACAU: A PERPLEXING EXPERIENCE
FCLaw partner, Jorge Menezes, published an opinion article on the Macau Daily Times with a critical analysis of the judicial culture and procedural rules governing criminal trials in Macau.
In this widely read piece, Menezes puts forth a critique of the dynamics of criminal trials, questioning the conditions of fair process and of judges’ impartiality, concluding that “Macau’s criminal system, although defective and performing below its due, still seems to work in a relatively satisfactory fashion, not thanks to its design, but in spite of it, due to publicity, free press, general ethics, and a judicial culture inherited and shared by judges.”
