Characteristics of a Fatal Injury CaseThe Inquest
In cases of fatal injury, there will always be an inquest. An inquest is a type of court inquiry presided over by the Coroner for the county or city where the death occurred. Usually the inquest will tale place within several months following the death though it may be delayed in cases where there is a criminal investigation or where complex medical or other technical opinion is required by the coroner.
