=== Legal === Bibas writes that some [[criminal defense attorney]]s prefer to err on the side of pessimism: "Optimistic forecasts risk being proven disastrously wrong at trial, an embarrassing result that makes clients angry. On the other hand, if clients plead based on their lawyers' overly pessimistic advice, the cases do not go to trial and the clients are none the wiser."<ref>{{citation |last=Bibas |first=Stephanos |title=Plea Bargaining outside the Shadow of Trial |date=Jun 2004 |volume=117 |number=8 |pages=2463β2547 |publisher=Harvard Law Review}}.</ref>
