What is an indictment?

  1. A decision by a small tribunal to convict

  2. A legal recommendation for sentencing

  3. A final verdict of guilt

  4. Authorization for a criminal trial based on grand jury evidence

The correct answer is: Authorization for a criminal trial based on grand jury evidence

An indictment is an authorization for a criminal trial based on grand jury evidence, meaning that it is not a final verdict of guilt. Option A is incorrect because it mentions a tribunal instead of a grand jury. Option B is also incorrect because it mentions a recommendation for sentencing instead of a criminal trial. Option C is incorrect because it mentions a final verdict of guilt, but an indictment is only an authorization for a trial, not a final verdict.
