Il est bon de noter que l'expression «procureur de l'État» est utilisée comme équivalent de «State's attorney» aux États-Unis d'Amérique. En France, on utilise les expressions «ministère public» et le «procureur de la République» représentant les intérêts de l'État. Ils jouent le même rôle en matière civile, criminelle et pénale. Cependant, c'est le terme «procureur de la Couronne» qui peut être considérée au Canada comme équivalent de «State's attorney», «prosecuting attorney» et «public prosecutor». 4, record 1, French, - procureur%20de%20l%27%C3%89tat
