Williams v. State

Summary

The court held that Williams entered his guilty plea knowingly, intelligently, voluntarily, and without coercion, so the trial court properly denied his motion to withdraw the plea. It also held that Williams failed to establish constitutionally deficient performance by plea counsel. Although Williams did not challenge his sentence, the court vacated the convictions and sentences on Counts 11 and 12 because those offenses should have merged with Count 10. No separate opinions were filed.
