The Right to Trial Act aims to protect the constitutional right to a trial by allowing courts to impose sentences below statutory minimums.

The Right to Trial Act seeks to safeguard the constitutional right to a trial by giving courts the authority to impose sentences below statutory minimums. This is intended to discourage extended sentences for defendants who choose to go to trial instead of accepting a plea offer. The bill amends the U.S. Code to include the plea offer and sentences of similarly situated defendants as factors courts must consider when imposing a sentence.
