Full text
193.1. Despite any provision of this Code, a defendant may plead not guilty regarding an offence he has been charged with and plead guilty regarding another offence relating to the same case, whether or not it is an included offence.
The judge may, with the consent of the prosecutor, admit the defendant’s plea of guilty for that other offence. If the plea is admitted, the judge shall acquit the defendant of the offence he has been charged with and declare the defendant guilty of the other offence.
