Domain-specific

• Mute of Malice
  • … Law Act 1967 still states that when a person “stands mute of malice or will not answer directly,” the court may enter a not-guilty plea. The Criminal Procedure Rules 2025 take a more direct route: if the defendant declines to enter a plea, the court must treat that as not guilty unless the unfitness rule applies.
