    Rejecting availability of coram nobis to remedy claims involving defective informations, ineffective assistance of counsel, and cruel and unusual punishment

    We held that the trial court had a sufficient factual basis to accept Gregory's guilty plea, and that the court properly took judicial notice of the file for purposes of establishing a factual basis. Gregory v. State, 325 N.W.2d 297, 299 (S.D. 1982)[ Gregory I].

  4. State v. Jacobson

    491 N.W.2d 455 (S.D. 1992)   Cited 6 times
    Remanding to the trial court for a determination of the factual question of whether the arresting officer had information prior to administration of Defendant's blood test that the arrest was his third DUI offense

    Jacobson argues that a facially invalid, prior DUI conviction was used to sustain his conviction for third offense DUI. He bases his argument on the contention that the record of his DUI conviction of July 30, 1987, fails to reflect that the plea-taking court established a factual basis for acceptance of the guilty plea on which the conviction was based. We find this argument resolved by our holding in Gregory v. State, 325 N.W.2d 297 (S.D. 1982). In Gregory, a habeas corpus petitioner appealed the denial of his petition for post-conviction relief on the grounds that no factual basis for the guilty plea on which the conviction was based had been established on the record.

    In Alexander v. Solem, 383 N.W.2d 486, 489 (S.D. 1986), this court recognized "that the records in a criminal case are as fully before the court through judicial notice as they would be if introduced into evidence."

    Id. at 77, quoting State v. Cody, 322 N.W. 11, 12 n. 2 (S.D. 1982). We further noted in Gregory v. State, 325 N.W.2d 297, 299 (S.D. 1982), that the records in a criminal case are as fully before the court through judicial notice as they would be if introduced into evidence. Therefore, we find that the habeas court herein properly took judicial notice of Alexander's underlying criminal file which was necessary and relevant for a determination of the merits of this action.
