Legally speaking, a no contest plea has the same effect as a guilty plea on a conviction when it comes to sentencing. The only significant difference between a guilty plea and a nolo (no contest) plea is the effect on a related civil issue.A no contest plea is similar to a guilty plea. When you plead no contest, you technically admit that you are guilty of the crime being charged. You should never enter a guilty plea at your arraignment. By doing so, several factors may result in serious penalties and possibly a permanent criminal record. It's equivalent to the state as you aren't contesting the charges against you and the court mostly treats it the same as a guilty plea.
