Re: Waive Recorders Court Hearing

It could be the same as a Nolo Contendere plea. Basically the person makes no contest, but on the other hand one cannot use the no contest action as an admission. How are you related to the decendent? Is there a wrongful death claim being pursued?

Please call if you would like to discuss this matter further?
