When a jury decides if there is enough evidence to place a person on trial, it is called a "preliminary hearing" or "grand jury proceeding." In a grand jury, the jury reviews evidence presented by the prosecution to determine if there is sufficient cause to indict the defendant. If they find there is enough evidence, the case moves forward to trial. This process helps ensure that individuals are not subjected to trial without adequate evidence against them.
