It may be difficult to find out the truth in some legal cases in your town. You may not be able to decide if someone was killed accidentally or murdered.

If the case is too difficult, take it to the court at the place where the LORD your God chooses to be worshipped. This court will be made up of one judge and several priests who serve at the LORD's altar. They will explain the law to you and give you their decision about the case. Do exactly what they tell you, or you will be put to death.
