the conduct of the Defendant during the Incident
d) A “serious offense” shall refer to any crime which the State, in its complete discretion,

e) The “effective date” of this Agreement shall refer to the date and time when this

2) Agreements
a) All named parties agree to be bound to this Agreement and the entirety of the terms
stipulated herein by facsimile signatures or by expressing agreement over Discord
b) The Defendant agrees to enter a plea of no contest against the information filed in the
Case based off of the Defendant’s acts during the Incident
i) The Defendant agrees that they have entered into this Agreement freely,
voluntarily, and without reservation, and that their desire to enter a plea of no
contest is not the result of threats or coercion made against the Defendant or
anyone connected with the Defendant
ii) The Defendant agrees that they have received effective assistance of counsel and
fully understand the ramifications of this plea and a potential subsequent
conviction, which could include a number of difficult barriers to expungement
c) The Defendant agrees that they have been advised of and fully understand their
constitutional and statutory rights and agrees that by pleading no contest to the
information, they are waiving some of them:
i) To have an attorney, and that if they cannot afford an attorney, to have one
provided to him free of cost;
ii) To persist in a plea of not guilty;
iii) To have a speedy and public trial;
iv) To be presumed innocent unless proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt;
v) To confront and examine witnesses who testify against him;
vi) To call witnesses on his behalf; and,
vii) To not be compelled to testify against themselves.
d) The State agrees to recommend that the court withhold a guilty verdict and subsequently
a criminal conviction indefinitely until the Defendant:
i) pays the Victim $2,000 in Ridgeway dollars;
ii) writes and delivers to the Victim an apology of a reasonable sincerity, insofar as
the State is satisfied; and
iii) surpasses 26 days from the Effective Date of this Agreement without obtaining a
criminal record for a serious offense.
e) The Defendant agrees that they understand that the court will consult and take into
account the State’s recommendations, but that the court is not bound by the
recommendation or this Agreement and may find the defendant guilty following their
plea of no contest
f) Contingent on the Defendant’s completion of the terms outlined in sections 2(c)(i)
through 2(c)(iii), the State agrees to both fully dismiss the Case and not pursue further
criminal charges relating to the events that transpired during the Incident
g) The Defendant agrees that they waive their protections under the Statute of Limitations
Act and any other applicable common or statutory law which would prevent the
government from pursuing the Case or other charges relating to the events that transpired
during the Incident for a reason related to the length of time since the Incident occurred
3) Noncompliance
a) The Defendant agrees that, should they be in violation of any part of this Agreement, the
State will promptly notify them of the purported violation. Upon notification, the
Defendant shall have 24 hours to cure the purported violation to the satisfaction of the
State. Should the Defendant fail to or be unable to cure the violation within the given
timeframe, they shall be in violation of this Agreement
i) The Defendant agrees that, if after entering this Agreement, they are in violation
of this Agreement, or if they provide information to the Court or the State that is
intentionally misleading, intentionally incomplete, or intentionally untruthful, or
attempts to withdraw from this Agreement when not expressly permitted to by
this Agreement or the law, it shall constitute a breach of this Agreement which
shall release the State from any restrictions or obligations placed upon it under the
terms of this Agreement, and that the State will be free to reinstate dismissed
charges or pursue additional charges against the Defendant. The Defendant shall,
however, remain bound by the terms of this Agreement, and will not be allowed
to withdraw their plea of no contest unless permitted to do so by the Superior
Court
ii) The Defendant agrees that, if after entering this Agreement, they are found in
violation of this Agreement, the State will request that the Defendant’s plea of no
contest be accepted by the court and therefore that the Defendant be found guilty
on all levied charges in the Case. The Defendant also agrees to be sentenced to 90
minutes incarcerated should they be convicted of the crimes they have been
charged with in relation to their conduct during the Incident
b) The Defendant agrees that, should they find the State to be in violation of this
Agreement, the Defendant shall notify the representative of the State of the purported
violation. The State shall, upon notification, work to cure the purported violation in a way
that maintains the integrity of this Agreement and the rights of the Defendant. The
Defendant shall not be released from their obligations contained within this Agreement
because of a violation perpetrated by the State without either the consent of all named
parties or the consent of the court and, in any case, only if the State has acted either
negligently or in bad-faith in such a way that the rights of the Defendant or the principles
of justice have been infringed upon
4) Waiver of Appellate and Post-conviction Rights
a) The Defendant, acknowledging he has the right to appeal any sentence imposed, waives
the right to directly appeal any conviction or sentence imposed by the court in relation to
the Case, or the manner in which a sentence in that sentence was determined, on any
grounds whatsoever, in exchange for the concessions made by the State in this
Agreement;
b) The Defendant expressly acknowledges and agrees that the State reserves all rights to
appeal the defendant’s sentence as established in U.S. v. Booker, 125 S. Ct. 738 (2005);
and
c) The Defendant waives the right to collaterally attack any conviction or sentence imposed
by the court in the Case.
5) Amendments, Constitution
a) The Defendant agrees that they understand that this Agreement constitutes the entire
agreement of the parties. Further, all parties agree that there are no other oral agreements
or promises not contained in this Agreement which have been made to induce the
Defendant to enter any plea or engage in any specific course of behavior

forth in writing in a supplemental or revised plea agreement signed by all parties.
