When a defendant is admonished, it means they are formally warned or advised by the court about the legal implications of their actions or decisions, particularly regarding their rights and the consequences of pleading guilty or not guilty. This process ensures that the defendant understands the charges against them, the potential penalties, and the rights they are waiving by making certain choices. Admonishment is crucial for ensuring that any plea or decision made by the defendant is informed and voluntary.
