In a criminal case, the state, through a prosecutor, initiates the suit, while in a civil case the victim brings the suit. Persons convicted of a crime may be incarcerated, fined, or both. Criminal defense attorneys represent clients who have been accused of committing a crime, and defend their rights at each stage of a misdemeanor or felony case -- from an arrest to an appeal after conviction. Criminal defense attorneys may be hired privately or provided by the government (called "public defenders").
Burna is an unincorporated community in central Livingston County, Kentucky, United States. The name was decided upon by a contest. A young girl named Burna was selected as the winner, and so the town was named after her. It is current home to the North Livingston Elementary School and Livingston County Middle School.
