A Pennsylvania Guilty Plea Petition is a legal document used in the state of Pennsylvania to enter a plea of guilty in a criminal case. This petition is signed by the defendant in the presence of a judge and can include an agreement to accept a plea bargain or to enter a plea of guilty without a plea bargain. There are two main types of Pennsylvania Guilty Plea Petition: 1) General Guilty Plea Petition and 2) Guilty Plea with an Agreement. The General Guilty Plea Petition is a document where the accused admits to the charges and is willing to accept any sentence imposed by the court. The Guilty Plea with an Agreement Petition is essentially the same, but with the additional agreement that the accused is willing to accept a plea bargain offered by the prosecutor. The plea bargain may include reduced charges or a lighter sentence.
