Does a motion to withdraw a plea of no confidence in a federal criminal case have jurisdiction to withdraw such a plea?
MultiRegion, United States of America
The following excerpt is from USA v. Aliotta, Leyland, and Peters, 199 F.3d 78 (2nd Cir. 1998):
Moreover, the grant or denial of a motion to withdraw such a plea does not create a jurisdictional issue. It is instead a matter for the exercise of sound discretion by the trial court. See United States v. Vega, 11 F.3d 309, 313 (2d Cir. 1993); United States v. Gonzalez, 970 F.2d 1095, 1099-1100 (2d Cir. 1992).
