P. v. Newquist
Defendant challenges the trial court’s 2011 denial of his motion to withdraw his 2003 guilty plea, after remand by this court for a full hearing on the motion. Defendant contends his mental condition prevented him from exercising his free and clear judgment when he pled guilty, his counsel was ineffective, and the trial court improperly coerced him to plead guilty. As discussed below, we conclude that each of these claims lacks merit and so affirm the trial court’s ruling denying the motion to withdraw.
