Introduction of evidence and/or Statements of Fact, may be submitted to a court which has jurisdiction and which has begun proceedings. This information is usually submitted as an "Amicus Curae" Brief. If the Judge allows the AC brief into proceedings, it becomes a part of the trial or deliberation process. An AC Brief may be submitted for either Party in the judicial process and becomes a permanent record. However, the submitting party must show "Standing" -- meaning that the judicial process has a connection to the submitting party.
