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").
Viborg (pronounced VY'-burg) is a city in Turner County, South Dakota, United States. The population was 832 at the 2000 census. The city is most likely named after the Danish city of Viborg, as the US city was founded by Danish-Americans and the only alternative is the Finnish city of the same name.
