มาตรา 173/1 — การตรวจพยานหลักฐานก่อนสืบพยาน

คำแปลภาษาไทย

In order that the trial may proceed speedily, continuously, and fairly, in a case in which the defendant does not plead or pleads not guilty, on the application of either party or when the court considers it appropriate, the court may fix a date for the examination of evidence before fixing the date for taking evidence, giving the parties advance notice of not less than fourteen days. Not less than seven days before the evidence-examination date under paragraph one, the parties shall submit to the court a list of witnesses together with sufficient copies for the other parties to collect from the court officer; and if any party wishes to submit an additional list of witnesses, it shall be submitted to the court before the examination of evidence is concluded. Submission of an additional list of witnesses after the period under paragraph two has passed may be done only with the court's permission, when the applicant shows reasonable cause that it could not have known of that evidence, or where it is necessary in the interest of justice or to give the defendant a full opportunity to contest the case. If any documentary or material evidence is in the possession of a third person, a party wishing to rely on it shall apply to the court to order that evidence produced from the possessor by filing an application together with the list of witnesses, so as to obtain that documentary or material evidence before the evidence-examination date or the date the court fixes.
