Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The process described in the question is a plea bargain, where a juvenile pleads guilty in exchange for concessions made by the prosecutor. Option A is not correct as a negotiated sentence refers to a sentence that is negotiated between the defense attorney and the prosecutor, but it does not involve a guilty plea. Option C refers to the process of determining the appropriate sentence after a defendant has been found guilty, which is not the case in the given scenario. Option D is too general and does not accurately describe the process being referred to.
