Guilty - Not Guilty - Nolo Contendre. The last being Latin meaning; I don't plead Guilty but I acknowledge that there is probably sufficient evidence to convict me. In juvenile courts the pleas can be 'Involved'" and 'Not Involved.'" Same as guilty and not guilty but it sounds nicer.

The four pleas a defendant may use in a criminal case are guilty, not guilty, guilty but mentally ill, and nolo contendere (no contest). A defendant who pleads guilty admits their responsibility for the crime. Pleading not guilty indicates that the defendant denies the charges and intends to contest them. A guilty but mentally ill plea acknowledges guilt but asserts that the defendant had a mental illness at the time of the offense. A nolo contendere plea means the defendant does not contest the charges but does not admit guilt.
This is called the plea of no contest, or legally known as nolo contendere. However, some states do not allow no contest pleas for more serious crimes. In this case the defendant makes what is called an Alford plea, which is a plea of guilty but in the best interest of the defendant, not because the defendant is guilty.

The amount of pleas that can be offered to a convicted felon will vary depending on the crimes. The DA will have final say over any pleas offered. An attorney can help make a deal with the DA.
