Opinion
99 Cr. 101 (TPG).
November 27, 2006
OPINION
Defendant entered a guilty plea to all counts of the indictment on March 29, 2004. On October 19, 2005 defendant moved pro se to withdraw the plea. New counsel for defendant came into the case and renewed the motion on June 8, 2006. The Government has responded opposing the motion.
The motion is denied.
There is no substance to the motion. Contrary to the argument of new counsel, defendant's factual admission covered satisfactorily both the conspiracy and substantive counts of the indictment. Moreover, the minutes of the guilty plea show that the court covered all the requirements of Fed.R. Cr. P. 11.
Defendant's motion to withdraw his guilty plea must be denied, along with certain other applications based on the alleged invalidity of the guilty plea.
SO ORDERED.
