Are You Morbid?
"No contest" means you face the same penalty as pleading guilty, not going in to try and make a deal under the "not guilty" phase, but you are not making a guilty claim. This frees you of a lot of liability, despite the fact that you have to serve the penalties of a guilty plea. This type of plea is entered when you know you're not going to get a deal and you're guilty as sin, but you don't want to claim yourself as guilty.LORD_RED_DRAGON said:REFUSING TO CONTEST THE CHARGES (I'M SURE SOMEONE ELSE WOULD BE ABLE TO EXPLAIN IT BETTER THAN THAT)
