P. v. Medina CA2/3
In 1998, Leonel Medina pleaded guilty to two felony counts, and the trial court sentenced him to two years in prison. More than 20 years later, Medina filed a motion to vacate the pleas and convictions, arguing the trial court failed to make a sufficient inquiry into the factual basis for the pleas and referred to the wrong statute while taking one of the pleas. The superior court construed the motion as a petition for writ of error coram nobis, which it denied after finding Medina failed to show due diligence. On appeal, Medina argues the court abused its discretion in denying his motion. We affirm the order and remand the case with directions to correct an error in the abstract of judgment.
