Abstract

In the United States, the Supreme Court recently acknowledged that ‘criminal justice today is for the most part a system of pleas, not a system of trials’. More than 95 per cent of convictions in the federal and state systems are the product of negotiated guilty pleas. In England and Wales, that number is about 90 per cent.
