The Fifth amendment. "To plead the fifth"

The Fifth Amendment states that nobody can be forced to testify against themselves in court. If you "plead" the fifth, you are basically stating that you have done something wrong but that you are not going to tell them what it is so you don't get charged for the crime (until they catch you later that is).

Never. Your right to plead the 5th and remain silent is a constant right which no authority has the right to snuff out.

You may not be forced to incriminate yourself in a trial. That means that if someone asks you a question the answer of which may incriminate you (regardless of your true guilt) you do not have to answer and they have no right to force the answer out of you. "I plead the 5th." Is the standard answer to such a question.

To say or plead in protest

It is an legal term in the USA. That covers citizens in the USA. The fifth (5) reefer to the Fifth Amendment to the American Constitution. It states that 'you can not be forced to give incriminating (damaging) evidence against yourself'. So if a person is asked a question that will be damaging to themselves they can just state that "I plead the Fifth Amendment and will not answer that question" Usually this means, and everybody knows this, that the person has something to hide and that in it self is damaging, but the person did not tell a lie and can there for not be charged with perjury (lying under oath) which is an offense punishable with prison time. Answer Pleading the fifth is a reference to the Fifth Amendment. Making such a plea means that you refuse to answer the question on the ground that your answer might incriminate you. If you choose to take the fifth upon questioning by an opposing party, just know that you will probably have to take the fifth for every question you are asked. Also know that just because you plead the fifth, it doesn't mean that you cannot be found guilty by some other means. Finally, if you plead the fifth in some non-criminal matter, that protection may be absolute. For example, in the State of Georgia, if you take the fifth on a question in a divorce case, the judge can assume the answer is "yes, I'm guilty of what you're asking me."

The Fifth Amendment protects the right to avoid incriminating yourself. A defendant can plead the Fifth Amendment if a lawyer asks a question that the defendant would incriminate himself or herself by answering truthfully.
