Answer to Question 1

Prosecutor offices are structured like most offices. There is a chief district attorney followed by assistant district attorneys. Depending on how large the department is, each attorney may be assigned a type of case (felony or misdemeanor for example) or a part of case (pretrial, trial, or post-trial proceedings) they oversee, or share caseloads having a rotation system or several district attorneys working on one case. In addition to the assistant district attorneys, the department will usually have administrative personnel.

Prosecutors represent the government in court, execute the law, uphold federal and state constitutions, complete investigative work, litigate, and perform court functions. They use discretion in decisions to charge, how to proceed with a case, when offering plea deals, and when working with defense attorneys, judges, and victims.
