Heh.  I guess Sherrie and I posted at about the same time?  But I 
have a question for you Alla - why do you think Dumbledore gave any 
kind of testimony in regards to Sirius being innocent or guilty?  I 
have it my head that Sirius is captured at the explosion scene, 
covered in dirt and blood, with witnesses to Peter's accusation, and 
he's laughing.  So he's dragged into Crouch's presence (or maybe 
someone just floo's Crouch?) and Crouch is all, "Throw him in 
Azkaban, and loose the key!" and that's the end for Sirius.  Is 
there anything that suggests a calm discussion of fact went on?

Alla:

What do you mean, "why do I think that Dumbledore gave the 
testimony?" 

It is not me, it is canon, which gives us the reason to think if not 
for sure, but at least with a big possibility that some kind of 
hearing occurred ( with or without Sirius)

"I myself gave the evidence to the Ministry that Sirius had been 
Potters' Secret Keeper" - PoA, p.392, paperback.
