Description of Special Pleading. Special Pleading is a fallacy in which a person applies standards, principles, rules, etc. to others while taking herself (or those she has a special interest in) to be exempt, without providing adequate justification for the exemption. This sort of reasoning has the following form:
What occurs at a pre-trial conference? Generally, either the case is resolved or the case is prepared for trial. If you want to resolve the case, the process is the same as set out in the discussion about arraignment. If you want to go to trial and you do not have a lawyer, you must file a waiver of counsel form . If you filed one at arraignment you do not need to file another. You will then speak to the prosecutor to try to resolve your case. You, or your lawyer, and the prosecutor exchange information about the case. This is called discovery. During the pre-trial conference either side can file or set a date for filing motions, including a motion to dismiss the complaint or to prevent certain evidence from being used at trial.
