Concept in Definition ABC

The concept of absolution has in our language of a use that occurs fundamentally in two senses.

On the one hand and at the request of the religion Catholic, absolution implies the forgiveness of sins that a priest grants to a faithful penitent within the framework of confession.

Confession or penance, as it is also called, is one of the sacraments administered by the Catholic Church and that, as we said, implies God's forgiveness of those sins committed by the Christians.

When a believer appears before a priest to confess his sins, basically, what he proposes is that he offer him absolution. Meanwhile, that presentation spontaneous to confess to heart open his mistakes and errors and the consequent repentance is what will motivate the priest to make the absolution.
Normally absolution is accompanied by a small penalty or task that will be given to the faithful, either to perform a sentence or try to make amends for the mistake, for example by apologizing to the offended or upset.

And on the other hand, in the right, the acquittal turns out to be that declaration of not guilt that a defendant receives in the framework of a trial that continues against him, as a consequence, from that moment on, the accused will become innocent and will regain his Liberty if, as a forecast, preventive detention had been issued. Likewise, if he had posted a bond to stay free, it will be returned as soon as the court ruling dictates his acquittal.

The acquittal is of course the end pursued by a defendant when he is put on trial and obviously it is the end of his defense attorney who will try through arguments and evidence to obtain it.
A judge, a court or a jury will be in charge of promulgating the acquittal once they have analyzed evidence and testimonies and of course, it is the last step in a trial.

It is also worth noting that when an acquittal is given by means of a final judgment, the accused will not be able to be tried again for the same.
