sequential police lineup  

Definition

  • A police lineup procedure in which the members of the lineup (suspect and fillers) are presented one by one to the witness or victim who is thus in a better position to compare each face directly with his or her memory of the perpetrator. The procedure ends when the witness or victim has made a positive identification.
