Legal Answers
66 Questions Answered
- Q. What is the first step in withdrawing my plea?
- A: If you entered a guilty plea before the end of your outside date, with the assistance of counsel and there was a written statement that you agreed made you guilty of the crime you plead guilty to it would be very difficult to get the court to allow the withdrawal of your guilty plea. Outside dates are almost always close to and around the time of when I trial is set so IF you weren't informed of the outside date issue and the court messed up by setting it past the date and you can show prejudice then maybe you can get it withdrawn BUT do they have a strong case against you? Would you lose anyway because a withdraw doesn't necessarily mean that the matter gets dismissed. Good Luck to you
