If a prosecutor and defendant have to come to a plea agreement can a judge say no and force a trial?
In most states, the judge can reject the plea agreement and the defendant has the right to withdraw his guilty plea. This does not necessarily force a trial because the prosecution and defense can at that point renegotiate the deal.
What does aid in execution mean?
Something in "aid of execution" is a court pleading or action to do something to enforce a court judgment. Enforcing a judgment, whether one for money damages or for eviction, is done by execution on the judgment. A judgment holder on a debt can execute the judgment by attaching the defendant's assets or garnishing salary. One way to force payment is to execute or levy on a defendant's assets. Sometimes the location of those assets is unknown and a court will give the judgment holder the right to bring the defendant in to declare his assets and tell where they are. Not every state will do this. The judgment holder applies for an order to compel the defendant to appear. This in an effort to aid in the execution of the judgment. hence the phrase.

What skills are needed in self defense?
Element 1 - Actual belief regarding use of physical force by other personThe first element is that when the defendant used defensive force against , (he/she) actually -- that is, honestly and sincerely -- believed that the other person was using or about to use physical force against (him/her/). The word "using" has its ordinary meaning, that is, the other person has already begun to use force. The word "imminent" means that the person is about to use physical force at that time. It does not encompass the possibility that an act of physical force may take place at some unspecified future time.If you have found that the force used by the defendant was deadly physical force, then you must find that the defendant actually believed that was not only using or about to use physical force upon (him/her/), but that the other person was either using or about to use deadly physical force against (him/her/), or inflicting or about to inflict great bodily harm upon (him/her/). "Great bodily harm" is not limited by the definition of serious physical injury and may encompass other acts such as sexual assault or the threat of sexual assault.4 The term "great" has its ordinary meaning and indicates a bodily harm that is substantially more than minor or inconsequential harm.The act of leading to the defendant's use of defensive physical force need not be an actual threat or assault. The test is not what the other person actually intended, but what the other person's act caused the defendant to believe was the intention of the other. In other words, the danger to which the defendant was reacting need not have been actual or real. In judging the danger to (himself/herself/) the defendant is not required to act with infallible judgment. A person acting in (self-defense / the defense of others) is sometimes required to act instantly and without time to deliberate and investigate. Under such circumstances it is possible to perceive an actual threat when none in fact existed.Element 2 - Reasonableness of that beliefThe second element is that the defendant's actual belief about the force being used or about to be used against (him/her/) was a reasonable belief. This means that under the circumstances of the case, viewing those circumstances from the defendant's point of view, the defendant's actual belief that was using or about to use physical force or deadly physical force against (him/her/) was reasonable because a reasonable person in the defendant's situation at the time of (his/her) actions, viewing the circumstances from the defendant's point of view, would have shared that belief.Element 3 - Actual belief regarding degree of force necessaryThe third element is that when the defendant used physical force upon for the purpose of defending (himself/herself/), (he/she) actually -- that is, honestly and sincerely -- believed that the degree of force (he/she) used was necessary for that purpose. This applies whether you have found that the defendant used deadly physical force or not. The question is whether the defendant believed that it was necessary to use the degree of force that (he/she) used to defend (himself/herself/) from the attack.Element 4 - Reasonableness of that beliefThe fourth element is that the defendant's actual belief about the degree of force necessary to defend (himself/herself)/ was a reasonable belief. This means that under the circumstances of the case, viewing those circumstances from the defendant's point of view, the defendant's actual belief that the degree of force used was necessary to defend (himself/ herself/ ) was reasonable because a reasonable person in the defendant's circumstances at the time of (his/her) actions, viewing those circumstances from the defendant's point of view, would have shared that belief.
