- Title
Procuring Guilty Pleas for International Crimes: The Limited Influence of Sentence Discounts.
- Authors
Combs, Nancy Amoury
- Abstract
The article discusses the limits of law procedures procuring guilty pleas for international crimes. The sort of plea bargaining that is practiced in a given jurisdiction depends on a number of considerations, the most important of which is the legislative scheme that governs the sentencing of the court. Prosecutors who wish to procure guilty pleas must be more flexible in their efforts if they are to balance the many factors that can deter international defendants from pleading guilty.
