	Supreme Court of Virginia Synopsis of Opinions
		Because the Supreme Court of Virginia concluded the evidence was sufficient to establish that Gunn had possession of funds that came into her custody by virtue of her official position and that she knowingly misused or misappropriated the funds, the Court affirmed the judgment of the Court of Appeals and upheld Gunn's conviction.
		The Supreme Court held that the proffered evidence was thus insufficient to establish a prima facie defense of insanity, and the trial court did not err in excluding White's proffered evidence of insanity.
		The Court remanded the case for trial on the merits, ruling that the city had submitted its case to the trial court on the issue of the statute of limitations and that the city's evidence in support of its contention had been insufficient as a matter of law.

	Trial (law) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In legal parlance, a trial is an event in which parties to a dispute present information (in the form of evidence) in a formal setting, usually a court, before a judge, jury, or other designated finder of fact, in order to achieve a resolution to their dispute.
		An appellate proceeding is also generally not deemed a trial, because such proceedings are usually restricted to review of the evidence presented before the trial court, and do not permit the introduction of new evidence.
		In earlier times disputes were often settled through a trial by ordeal, where parties would have to endure physical suffering in order to prove their righteousness; or through a trial by combat, in which the winner of a physical fight was deemed righteous in their cause.
