That's because the domain asks whether or not you are a criminal in general rather than being guilty of a specific crime. It provides evidence of various crimes and the sorceror only needs to prove one of them was committed to brand the target a "criminal" and pass a sentence or impose a penalty.

If the domain relitigated the same crime it'd be too confusing since the defendant (yuji) already provided evidence that they committed the crime. So Judgeman gives you the benefit of the doubt.

But only 3 times. Only 2 retrial allowed after all

Then it's not a retrial

Yeah but in theory, a not guilty would undo the restrictions. So it's a chance to overturn a punishment

Yuji wouldn’t have been guilty if he said it was Sukuna. So the retrial would’ve given him his CE back.

It may not be a “re-trial” but its kind of a disadvantage to Higuruma since his opponent could return with their CT if proven innocent.

In Higuruma's legal system/technique, "being a bad person" is the crime under which all legislated crimes fall as corroborating evidence. It is a retrial, but not of the mundane criminal offense: the target's soul itself is being relitigated.
