plea in suspension

Read a random definition: supplanting limitation

A quick definition of plea in suspension:

A plea is when someone accused of a crime says if they are guilty or not guilty. Sometimes they can say they don't contest the charge. A plea in suspension is when someone makes a plea, but the case is put on hold until something else happens. There are different types of pleas, like a guilty plea or a not-guilty plea. A plea bargain is when the accused and the prosecutor agree on a plea. A plea in abatement is when the accused objects to how the case is being handled, but doesn't argue about whether they are guilty or not.

A more thorough explanation:

A plea in suspension is a type of plea made in a criminal case. It is a plea that objects to the place, time, or method of asserting the plaintiff's claim but does not dispute the claim's merits. This means that the defendant is not denying that they committed the crime, but they are objecting to some aspect of the case.

For example, a defendant may make a plea in suspension if they believe that the court does not have jurisdiction over the case. This means that they are arguing that the court does not have the legal authority to hear the case.

Another example of a plea in suspension is a plea to the venue. This means that the defendant is arguing that the case should be heard in a different location.

Overall, a plea in suspension is a way for a defendant to challenge some aspect of the case without denying that they committed the crime.
