By pleading guilty, a defendant does not give up the right to appeal certain issues, such as claims of ineffective assistance of counsel or violations of constitutional rights that occurred during the plea process. Additionally, they retain the right to contest the validity of their plea if it was not made voluntarily or if they were misled about the consequences. Furthermore, a defendant still has the right to be sentenced fairly and within the legal guidelines.

Does plea bargaining sacrifice the rights of the defendant or do the guilty benefit?

As with many things in life - it's a comprimise. Boths sides gain something, although they both have to give something up in return. The state (and the complainanst) get a guilty plea that usually guarantees some jail time for the defendant, and the defendant usually gets the opportunity to plead to a lesser offense and get a lighter jail sentence.


Which of the required all criminal cases to be tried in front of a jury?

No. A jury is not required for all criminal cases. A defendant can plead guilty or no contest and simply appear before a judge. A defendant can also wave his right to a jury trial and have the trial in front of a judge. A defendant simply has the right to a jury trial in most criminal cases in The United States.

In litigation what's the difference between an answer and a response?

In terms of written pleadings, an Answer is the first document filed by a defendant in a lawsuit. In the answer the defendant answers or responds to each individual allegation made in the Complaint. If the defendant does not answer the complaint, the court might enter judgment against defendant. A Response is a more general category of pleadings meaning just about every type of paper that responds to some paper filed by the other party, whether it is the plaintiff or defendant. Example: The defendant files a motion to dismiss or for summary judgment or for additional discovery. The plaintiff is required to respond to the request and give reasons why the request should be denied or the court will most likely grant the relief requested. Note that the "Answer" is a responsive pleading, therefore it could be called a Response in a way. But Responses that are in answer to requests during trial like the ones above and not called Answers. The term Answer is left to describe the defendant's pleading that gives his or her answers to the allegations of the Complaint


What does aid in execution mean?

Something in "aid of execution" is a court pleading or action to do something to enforce a court judgment. Enforcing a judgment, whether one for money damages or for eviction, is done by execution on the judgment. A judgment holder on a debt can execute the judgment by attaching the defendant's assets or garnishing salary. One way to force payment is to execute or levy on a defendant's assets. Sometimes the location of those assets is unknown and a court will give the judgment holder the right to bring the defendant in to declare his assets and tell where they are. Not every state will do this. The judgment holder applies for an order to compel the defendant to appear. This in an effort to aid in the execution of the judgment. hence the phrase.
