the girl in the white dress sent out a plea for help on Saturday
So my plea is to stop the journalistic jingo and to start to think and report.
The puppy's wordless plea invoked the desired response. The judge refused to listen to the prisoner's plea for justice.
I can give you several sentences.He entered a guilty plea in court.I'm ignoring your plea for more pie.His plea for mercy was answered.
I plea for mercy but to no avail
The police released a plea for witnesses to the crime.There was no way I could refuse her plea for snuggles.
The subject - plea - is singular so were should be wasThe plea of assistance was considered.......
In Louisiana you typically serve half of your sentence so if you plea to two years you would likely serve one.
You are not "convicted" unless a verdict has been rendered and a sentence pronounced. It that never took place prior to the plea bargain, then no, you are not.
Yes
His ardent plea rang hollow.
From the prosecution's point of view, plea bargains are sometimes offered to obtain testimony from the accused that could lead to a conviction in another, presumably higher-profile, case. For example, a hit man could plea bargain and have his own sentence reduced from murder to manslaughter if he agrees to testify against the crime boss who hired him. The prosecution may also offer a plea bargain to reduce court time or to show mercy to an accused. The defense is interested in plea bargains to eliminate or reduce the risk of a severe sentence following a potential conviction.
