Supreme Court of Colorado

Jose Sabino Espino-Paez, Petitioner v. the People of the State of Colorado, Respondent

June 5, 2017395 P.3d 786

Summary

The court held that Criminal Procedure Rule 32(d) does not authorize withdrawal of a guilty plea that was already withdrawn after successful completion of a deferred judgment. Because the plea had been withdrawn and the charge dismissed with prejudice, no plea remained for the defendant to withdraw, so the court affirmed the judgment below.
