Re: changing a plea
Changing your plea does not cost anything -- but I strongly advise you not to do this without consulting an attorney. There are many reasons why a criminal defendant does not make the best decisions available without the advice of an attorney. Do you KNOW that the ADA still has the plea offer on the table? Have you negotiated the terms of the plea? Retain a lawyer.
