The Vermont Waiver of Arraignment and Request To Enter Plea is a legal document that is used when a person wishes to waive their right to appear in court and enter a plea of guilty or no contest to the charges against them. The form is generally used when a person has been charged with a misdemeanor or felony offense, and they wish to avoid the formal arraignment process and plead guilty or no contest to the charges. The Waiver of Arraignment form must be signed by both the defendant and their attorney, and must be filed with the court. It must be approved by the presiding judge before it is considered valid. Once approved, the plea is entered into the court record and the defendant is sentenced. There are two types of Vermont Waiver of Arraignment and Request To Enter Plea: voluntary and involuntary. In a voluntary plea, the defendant willingly waives their right to appear in court and enter a plea of guilty or no contest. In an involuntary plea, the defendant is forced to waive their right to appear in court, either due to a lack of resources or other factors.
