at what stage of the legal process are most criminal cases resolved?
○ plea - bargaining
○ arraignment
○ trial
○ sentencing

Explanation:

In the criminal legal process, plea - bargaining is the stage where the defendant and the prosecutor negotiate. Most criminal cases are resolved at this stage as it avoids the time and resources of a trial. Arraignment is mainly for the defendant to enter a plea, trial is a more time - consuming and less common way to resolve cases compared to plea - bargaining, and sentencing happens after a conviction (either from plea or trial).

A. Plea - bargaining
