Legal Question in Criminal Law in Wisconsin

Re: meaning

In Wisconsin, it means that you were asked by the Court and the Court was satisfied with your answer(s) that it is/was your own, free will, desire and wish to pass on going through with a preliminary hearing and just going forward with getting a date before the judge to continue the felony-prosecution process (in order to continue on with the charges in a felony matter, the Court must either find probable cause after a preliminary hearing, or the defendant has to give up the right to a preliminary hearing in order for the Court to have probable cause to continue). I've got a helpful YouTube video about the preliminary-hearing/probable-cause process at the following link:
