\nThe correct option is D.
\n<\/section>\n
\nThe legal maxim “Audi Alteram Partem” is a fundamental principle of natural justice which translates to “hear the other side” or “let the other party be heard”. It ensures that no person is condemned or punished without being given a fair opportunity to present their case.
\n<\/section>\n
\nA) Autrefois convict: A legal plea meaning the defendant has already been tried and convicted for the same offense. It is a facet of the rule against double jeopardy.
\nB) Non bis in idem: A Latin phrase meaning “not twice in the same (matter)”. It is the principle of double jeopardy, preventing a person from being tried or punished multiple times for the same crime.
\nC) Habeas Corpus: A legal writ, meaning “you shall have the body”. It is a procedural tool used to challenge unlawful detention, requiring the detaining authority to bring the person before a court to justify the detention.
\nD) Audi Alteram Partem: A principle of natural justice requiring that both sides in a dispute be given an opportunity to be heard. It directly means “hear the other side” and encapsulates the idea that no one should be condemned without a hearing. This matches the phrase “no man (person) shall be condemned unheard”.
