Whether your case resolves by way of a plea bargain or proceeds to trial depends on a number of factors including the strength of the evidence against you, whether you have an alibi or other defense to be raised, whether there are witnesses against you, and what the offer is as compared to the risk of a conviction and a higher sentence if you proceed to trial. Whether your case proceeds to trial is ultimately up to you. However, you should talk to your criminal defense lawyer about all these issues before you make a decision.
