issuable plea

Read a random definition: review hearing

A quick definition of issuable plea:

An issuable plea is when someone accused of a crime says "guilty," "not guilty," or "no contest" in court. It's like answering a question about whether they did something wrong or not. Sometimes, they can make a deal with the prosecutor and agree to a certain plea. If they say "guilty," it means they admit to doing the crime. If they say "not guilty," it means they deny doing the crime and the prosecutor has to prove it. If they say "no contest," it means they don't admit to doing the crime, but they won't fight the charges.

A more thorough explanation:

An issuable plea is a formal response made by an accused person in court to a criminal charge. It can be a plea of "guilty," "not guilty," or "no contest."

Examples:

  • A defendant pleads "guilty" to a charge of theft.
  • A defendant pleads "not guilty" to a charge of assault.
  • A defendant pleads "no contest" to a charge of driving under the influence.

These examples illustrate how an issuable plea is a defendant's formal response to a criminal charge. The plea of "guilty" admits to the charge, while the plea of "not guilty" denies it. The plea of "no contest" does not admit guilt but accepts punishment.
