A complete list of the legal terms and definitions every attorney, paralegal, and law student needs to know.
In criminal law, in some jurisdictions, a jury may reach a verdict of Guilty But Mentally Ill where the accused is found to have committed the crime charged but where the mental illness is not great enough to warrant a verdict of Not Guilty by Reason of Insanity. A GBMI defendant can be sentenced to the same degree as a defendant without any mental problems.
