Re: double jeperty
The court is not obligated to accept a plea agreement between the defendant and the prosecutor. If after the defendant enters a plea, and the court refuses to accept the agreement, and enter a harsher sentence; the defendant can withdraw his plea and the case reverts to prior to the entry of the plea.
