In Great Britain the House of Commons serves as prosecutor and the House of Lords as judge in an impeachment proceeding. In the federal government of the United States, the House of Representatives institutes impeachment proceedings by authorizing a formal inquiry by the House Judiciary Committee, which may then recommend articles of impeachment(an impeachment resolution) for a vote by the full House(articles of impeachment may also be introduced in the House without a formal inquiry). 2, record 2, English, - impeachment

proceso de destitución; procedimiento de destitución; juicio político; juicio de desafuero; proceso político: La expresión "proceso de destitución" o "procedimiento de destitución" es apropiada para referirse al procedimiento conocido en inglés como "impeachment" [...] En ocasiones se usa el término "impeachment" para la destitución en sí, pero es un uso inapropiado porque el proceso no siempre se resuelve con ella [...] Otras alternativas, que pueden ser adecuadas en función del ordenamiento jurídico de cada país, son "juicio político", "juicio de desafuero" o "proceso político". 1, record 2, Spanish, - proceso%20de%20destituci%C3%B3n
