  2. State v. Forsyth

    560 P.2d 337 (Utah 1977)   Cited 18 times
    In Forsyth, the Utah Supreme Court stated, "[w]e are in full agreement with the proposition that for a plea of guilty to be valid it must appear that the accused had a clear understanding of the charge and without undue influence, coercion, or improper inducement voluntarily entered such plea."

    Citing North Carolina v. Alford, 400 U.S. 25, 91 S.Ct. 160, 27 L.Ed.2d 162.People v. Hudson, 7 Ill. App.3d 800, 288 N.E.2d 533; People v. Dugan, 4 Ill. App.3d 45, 280 N.E.2d 239; United States v.

In regard to the defendant's contention that he was not accorded the right to effective counsel, this is to be said: It is not at all uncommon for one who finds himself in such trouble as having been found or pleaded guilty to a crime to turn upon and impute fault to one who has previously tried to assist him.

  3. People v. Holt

    323 N.E.2d 451 (Ill. App. Ct. 1975)   Cited 2 times

    No special method is required to be used by the trial court and the determination of the factual basis may be developed by questioning defendant, or receiving the facts from defense counsel, or a witness, or listening to a summary of available evidence from the prosecutor, or even from a review of a presentence report in court, or by any other means which may seem best for the kind of case involved. People v. Dugan, 4 Ill. App.3d 45, 46, 280 N.E.2d 239. โ€ข 3 In the cause before us, defendant acknowledged that he read the indictment and that he understood that the charge was robbery, which he stated meant "taking some money which didn't belong to me."

  4. People v. Piper

    312 N.E.2d 851 (Ill. App. Ct. 1974)   Cited 2 times

    There must be substantial compliance with this requirement. ( People v. Dugan, 4 Ill. App.3d 45, 280 N.E.2d 239.) The rule, sensibly, does not lay down a ritual of inquiry as to what and from whom this requirement may be satisfied.

  5. People v. Reddick

    297 N.E.2d 360 (Ill. App. Ct. 1973)   Cited 3 times

    We think that these elements taken together demonstrate an adequate factual basis for the defendant's plea. People v. Dugan, 4 Ill. App.3d 45, 280 N.E.2d 239, and People v. Rollins, 9 Ill. App.3d 1011, 293 N.E.2d 733, cited by the defendant, are distinguishable on the facts and not applicable. In those cases, the Appellate Court stated that there was nothing in the record to indicate that the trial judge made any inquiry or determination as to the factual basis for the plea.

  6. People v. Fuller

    293 N.E.2d 765 (Ill. App. Ct. 1973)

    We therefore reverse and remand with instructions to allow defendant to plead anew. People v. Dugan, 4 Ill. App.3d 45, 280 N.E.2d 239. Reverse and remand.

  7. People v. Kinsley

    293 N.E.2d 627 (Ill. App. Ct. 1973)   Cited 8 times

    There is a long and comprehensive pre-sentence report which includes a lengthy statement by the appellant which admits many of the facts of the offense. This court has held that the judge may use any portion of the record to find a factual basis for the plea ( People v. Dugan, 4 Ill. App.3d 45, 280 N.E.2d 239), and the Appellate Court for the Second District has held that a factual basis may be found from facts brought out at the hearing in aggravation and mitigation although the plea has already been accepted. ( People v. Warship, 6 Ill. App.3d 461, 285 N.E.2d 224.)

  8. People v. Price

    292 N.E.2d 752 (Ill. App. Ct. 1973)   Cited 2 times

    In connection with determining the factual basis for the guilty plea no particular type of inquiry is specified and it has been determined that the court may satisfy itself as to the existence of the factual basis by having a prosecutor state the facts in the presence of defendant, by inquiring of defendant, by having the facts stated by a knowledgeable witness, by examination of a pre-sentence report, or by any other means which seem appropriate for the particular case. (Committee Comments on Rule 402(c), Ill. Rev. Stats. Anno., ch. 110A, ยง 402(c); People v. Dugan, 4 Ill. App.3d 45, 280 N.E.2d 239; People v. Doe, 6 Ill. App.3d 799, 286 N.E.2d 645.) As pointed out in the People v. Doe case, the rule does not require that the court set out the factual basis in detail in the record.

  9. People v. Hudson

    7 Ill. App. 3d 800 (Ill. App. Ct. 1972)   Cited 51 times
    In People v. Hudson, 7 Ill. App.3d 800, the court held that in the requirement of Rule 402(c) all that is necessary is that the record show that there is a basis for reasonably concluding that the defendant actually committed the acts with the intent required to constitute the offense to which the defendant is pleading guilty. The judgment may utilize any appropriate procedure which will assure a record that demonstrates there is a factual basis for the plea.

    The judge may utilize any appropriate procedure which will assure a record that demonstrates there is a factual basis for the plea. (ABA Standards and Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 11, Notes of Advisory Committee on Criminal Rules; People v. Dugan, 4 Ill. App.3d 45, 280 N.E.2d 239; United States v. Nichols (D.C. Cir. 1971), 440 F.2d 222, 223.) The method which should normally first be employed is to ask the defendant if he actually committed the acts with the intent (if any) required as set out in the indictment and as explained by the judge.
