other uses An inquest is a judicial investigation in common law jurisdiction s, conducted by a judge , jury , or government official. The most common kind of inquest is an inquiry including a medical examination by a coroner into the cause of a death that was sudden, violent or suspicious, or occurred in prison. Citation needed date June 2010 A coroner s jury may be convened to assist in this type of proceeding. Inquest can also mean such a jury and the result of such an investigation. In general usage, inquest is also used to mean any investigation or inquiry. An inquest uses witnesses, but suspects are not permitted to defend themselves. The verdict can be, for example, natural death, accidental death, misadventure, suicide, or murder. If the verdict is murder or culpable accident, Criminal law criminal prosecution may follow, and suspects are of course able to defend themselves there. Since juries are not used in most Europe an civil law legal system civil law systems, these do not have any jury procedure similar to an inquest, but medical evidence and professional witnesses have been used in court in continental Europe for centuries. http www.bartleby.com 61 71 I0157100.html http www.bartleby.com 65 in inquest.html ref name eb Larger inquests can be held into disaster s, or in some jurisdiction s not Inquest England and Wales England & Wales into cases of political corruption corruption . ref name eb Anon. 2001 Inquest , Encyclopaedia Britannica , Deluxe CDROM edition ref History The inquest , as a means of settling a matter of fact, developed in Scandinavia and the Carolingian Empire before the end of the tenth century. ref name baker cite book author Baker, J.
