Abstract- It is the application of linguistic techniques to investigate crimes in which language data form part of the evidence in order to support policy statements.
It is an integral part of applied linguistics by which Forensic Linguists analyze:
Statutes/laws
Legal procedures
Courtroom language
The language used as evidence in criminal and civil court cases.
Like other Applied Linguists, a Forensic Linguist has to teach lawyers, judges, and jurors the way linguistic analysis works in relation to specific legal issues.
