Re: plea bargan

I'm not sure I really get your question. An open plea means that your sentence is up to the Judge within the range for the degree of that crime, i.e. 3rd degree = 3 to 5 years. I don't like open pleas and I cannot remember the last time we did one. If you would like to discuss the matter further, please call my office at 732/247/3340. My consultations are always free.
