Settlement of a child abuse or neglect case at the adjudicatory stage involves a stipulation (admission or plea of no contest) as to the case-specific underlying factual basis of the allegation. In most cases, a stipulation to a lesser charge when there is an allegation of sexual abuse or severe physical abuse is unacceptable based on treatment issues and protection of other potential victims. The managing children's court attorney shall approve any exceptions.
