EN: passing of sentence; rendering of judgment
The most dramatic part of any legal TV show. It's when the judge, after all the 'objection, your honor!' and 'I rest my case,' finally drops the hammer. Everyone in the courtroom holds their breath. This is the moment of truth, the final verdict. 'Guilty or not guilty?'
From `paggagawad` (act of awarding/granting, from root `gawad`) and `hatol` (judgment/sentence).
ROOT MEANING: award; prize; grant
A formal legal term. 'Paggawad ng hatol' is also used and is more common. The reduplicated 'paggagawad' might imply a series of judgments or a very formal, ceremonial process.
🇵🇭 Ang paggagawad ng hatol sa akusado ay itinakda sa susunod na linggo.
🇺🇸 The passing of sentence for the accused is scheduled for next week.
