- Nóta The idea of a fair trial is central to human rights doctrine, not only as a right in itself, but because without this one right, all others are at risk; if the state is unfairly advantaged in the trial process, it cannot be prevented in the courts from abusing all other tights. (Source: A Dictionary of Human Rights, David Robertson, 2004) The terms 'fair trial' and 'fair hearing' are often used as synonyms, especially in the field of human rights. However, strictly speaking, 'fair hearing' is narrower in meaning.
