"First offender" literally means the person has committed one crime and only one crime regardless if it is a misdemeanor or a felony. That being the case, the answer is of course "once".

Is nolo and 1st offender the same?

No, the two terms have nothing to do with one another. "Nolo" is court slang for the plea of "Nolo Contendre" which is a plea offered by a defendant when they don't wish to plead guilty, but acknowledge that the prosecution probably has enough evidence to convict them. The term "First Offender" refers to someone who has never been arrested before this time.

Can you plea youthful offender status on more than one felony charged as juvenile?

You. as an individual, do not "plea" a youthful offender status. That classification is given by the court after reviewing your case(s) and determining if your case(s) qualify to be adjudicated under that particular statute.


Can you plea youthful offender on a felony even if you have already plead youthful offender on a misdemeanor If so what is the age limit in Alabama?

A Defedant may be allowed to plead youthful offender in Alabama if the person is under the age of 21 at the time the criminal offense was committed. An adjudication of youthful offender is not a criminal conviction and will not appear on your history as such. Youthful offender files are confidential records. You may apply for youthful offender status in any case whether it be the smallest misdemeanor like a speeding ticket of the most heinous felonies such as murder. However, it is discretionary with the judge as to whether or not you are granted youthful offender status. I do not recall those with felonies such as murder being granted youthful offender status. You may apply for youthful offender status in a felony case although you were previously adjudicated a youthful offender in a prior misdemeanor case. However, as I mentioned, it is entirely up to the judge as to whether or not he allows you a subsequent adjudication as a youthful offender. Hope this helped.

Is plea bargain fair on the victim?

Plea bargaining can be beneficial for both the victim and the perpetrator in some cases by avoiding the trauma of a trial and securing a quicker resolution. However, some victims may feel that plea bargains do not adequately punish the offender or provide them with the closure they seek. Ultimately, the fairness of a plea bargain to the victim depends on the individual circumstances of the case.
