Italian term or phrase: pronunciata in giudizio
Ecco il contesto:

Tuttavia, se per il reato a lui contestato sarà stata ***pronunciata in giudizio*** sentenza di condanna nei suoi confronti, egli non potrà essere obbligato a deporre sui fatti posti a base di tale condanna, se nelle varie fasi del relativo procedimento egli avrà negato la propria responsabilità.

if a court has found him guilty of a crime
Explanation:
This would be the translation in this particular case, since it refers to a "reato." The sentence in Italian is a little redundant, I think.

How about this:
Nevertheless, if he has been found guilty of the crime in a court of law, he may not be required to give a deposition...

Notes to answerer
Asker: yes Sylvia, I agree with you that this is the basic meaning of the sentence. I was wondering if there is a standard way of saying this in legal English or if I can go with a straightforward translation
