/tə plid noʊ ˈkɑntɛst (tu ðə ʧɑrdʒ)/ – Phrase
Definition: tuyên bố không muốn tranh cãi lời buộc tội.
A more thorough explanation: Pleading no contest, also known as nolo contendere, is a legal term used in criminal proceedings where the defendant neither admits nor denies the charges against them, but accepts the consequences as if they had been found guilty. This plea is treated similarly to a guilty plea for sentencing purposes.
Example: The defendant decided to plead no contest to the charge of driving under the influence.
