A messenger runs up to the town walls and posts some parchments.

How long do you think Judicial Trials should last?
A shorter time would allow justice to be done more quickly while a longer time would allow a better chance of more judges participating.

Note: This is only an informal survey, not a Public Voting of Lyrenzia.

I think the limit should be not just a time limit, but also it should end when all the evidence is before the court and everyone has testified. If only half the people involved testify before 5 days, is it really a fair trial?

There is no law here, that forces anybody to testify.
Just because you point a finger at someobdy, it doesn't necessarily mean that person will speak. We could wait forever, and the trial would never end, if they don't want to speak.

I think it should take as long as it takes to prove beyond accusation that the person commited the crime.
