What will happen at trial?
The city will present its case first. They will call witnesses and introduce evidence. After each witness, you will have an opportunity to cross examine the witness. This means you can ask questions of the witness. It does not mean that you can argue with the witness or make statements. You will have an opportunity to testify later.
