What does an indictment lead to?

  1. A promotion

  2. A dismissal

  3. A trial

  4. A settlement

The correct answer is: A trial

An indictment is a formal accusation by a grand jury that there is enough evidence to charge someone with a criminal offense. It does not necessarily lead to a promotion or dismissal as those would depend on the individual's job or employment status. Similarly, it does not directly lead to a settlement as that is a decision made outside of the legal process. However, an indictment may lead to a trial where a resolution or settlement can be reached.
