Hi can anyone help me do they take into consideration if you say your guilty for the first knock they take that into consideration and also do they take the length of time you have waited for court into consideration.

thanks in advance for any advice

They may take it into account for mitigating because that will look like he's showing remourse. But the reduction comes from the guilty plea in court xx

Admission at the beginning is always seen positively and the earlier it is made is always considered at the time of sentencing, I know it was mentioned in my OH case that he had been extremely cooperative from the day of the knock, admitting guilt early on is also favourable to the courts as it saves alot of time and money for them to conduct any hearing and if no costly trial is required it does help to reduce the sentence, also as Feelsick stated it does demonstrate remorse which is an important factor when considering sentencing.
