One judge issued an order to investigate the defendant s witnesses in the case against the plaintiff, [ ], for theft and assault causing bodily harm, and ordered the investigation suspended pending a decision. A date was set for the trial of the case. An order to suspend the investigation is not a conclusive determination of the dispute in the case of the single judge. The judge has the authority to issue such an order pursuant to Section of the Charter of the Judiciary (Judicial Council Decision No. 751-21 752/2509), Section 28. Testimony by oral examination would cause a warrant to be issued, according to Section 66 (1)-(4). The court issues a warrant after an indictment has been filed. A warrant may also be issued under Section 169 for a defendant suspected of fleeing, or Section 182, paragraph three willfully failing to attend the judgment. The Court of Appeal may order the trial court to issue a warrant for a defendant released by the trial court. A warrant may also be issued during appeal, according to Section 207.
