What are court proceedings regarding cases that take place before judges?

  1. Trials

  2. Conference Calls

  3. Mediations

  4. Hearings

The correct answer is: Hearings

Court proceedings that take place before judges are typically referred to as hearings. Hearings are formal proceedings where evidence is presented, witnesses may testify, and legal arguments are made before a judge in order to make a decision on a specific issue or case. While trials also involve court proceedings before judges, they are more formal proceedings where the facts of a case are litigated, a verdict is reached, and a final judgment is made. Conference calls and mediations are alternative dispute resolution methods that may take place outside of the courtroom setting to resolve issues without having to go through a full trial or hearing.
