A mitigation plea is an oral or written statement containing information about yourself or the circumstances of the offence that may result in a lower sentence imposed.

The purpose of your mitigation plea is for you to convey relevant mitigating factors so that the judge can arrive at a fair and just sentence. These can be reasons, facts or circumstances that seek to persuade the judge to exercise leniency or explain why your punishment should be lower.
