Entering a plea.

If you have been charged with a criminal offence, a judge will ask you to enter a plea at your first court appearance.  Your options at this point are:

• Plead guilty.
• Plead not guilty.
• Reserve your plea (this means that you postpone entering your plea to a later date).

The judge may allow you to reserve your plea to enable you to consult a criminal defence lawyer and become better informed about your options. If you have not yet contacted Eric Sutton, the time to do so is now, before entering a plea.  Once you plead guilty, there is generally no going back and there may be fewer ways in which Eric Sutton can help you at that point.
