I do not think that it will avoid trial but may lead to less of a sentence or not serve time in a prison but a mental hospital.

Is an order a pleading?

No. Federal Rules of Civil Procedure 7(a) defines pleadings: (1) a complaint; (2) an answer to a complaint; (3) an answer to a counterclaim designated as a counterclaim; (4) an answer to a crossclaim; (5) a third-party complaint; (6) an answer to a third-party complaint; and (7) if the court orders one, a reply to an answer. Strictly speaking, then, nothing else is a pleading. But many lawyers call just about anything that they file in court a pleading. Even then an order would not be a pleading because an order is issued by the court.

Which defense contends that the defendant should be not guilty because his or her state of mind negates criminal responsibility?

The term is called 'mens rea' In order to be convicted of any crime, every 'element' of the crime must be proven by the government beyond a reasonable doubt. So, it depends on what the crime is, and what are the particular elements of the crime alleged. If the alleged crime includes a particular 'state of mind' or 'mens rea', the government would have to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the defendant possessed the mens rea to commit the alleged offense. An example would be a defendant not being guilty by reason of a mental defect, sometimes called not guilty by reason of insanity. This explains why some defendants are not found guilty or not charged with some crime, and are instead committed to a government mental institution.


Why is the insanity defense bad?

The insanity defense is alright as long as it is not used in just any case situation involving a murder. An insanity defense may allow a defendant who is mentally competent and has no history of mental illness to fake a specific mental disorder like Dissociative Identity Disorder (like in a Law & Order SVU episode titled "Alternate") and use it as a way to plead "not guilty by reason of insanity."

If a restraining order is dropped will it stay on criminal record?

If it was only a CIVIL COURT restraining order, it will not appear on your criminal record. HOWEVER, if there was any criminal action associated with it, or which was the cause for it being issued, (e.g.: domestic battery), THAT is a criminal matter and it WILL appear on your criminal record.
