Urcea's code of criminal procedure traces its current form to the [[Great_Bull_of_1811#Seventh_Statement|Seventh Statement]] of the [[Great Bull of 1811]], which guarantees Urceans a speedy trial and trial by a jury of their peers. This Statement forms the basis of the [[Constitution of Urcea|Constitutional]] rules for the rights of the accused. The Great Bull is silent on the matter of criminal investigation by the police, but courts have interpreted the [[Great_Bull_of_1811#Eighth_Statement|Eighth Statement]] and other statutes to apply a general entitlement to {{wp|due process}} and presumption of innocence by the accused. | |||
