It is a way to have the solicitor review your case without having to come to court. The solicitor will make decisions about your case using the same considerations as if you appeared in person. The offer the solicitor extends through this website is the same offer you would receive in court. It simply takes place through this website.
You can plead guilty or no contest, be sentenced, and pay your fines/costs without going to court in person.
It is not different. There is a real judge and solicitor on the other side making decisions about your case based on the same criteria they would if you went to court in person. It just takes place through this website.

If you are eligible the solicitor will send you an offer to review and sign. Everything is done online so you do not have to travel to the courthouse.
