Opinion
BEAR, J.
The defendant, Joy P. James, appeals from the judgment of the trial court denying her motion to withdraw and vacate her guilty plea. On appeal, the defendant claims that the trial court erred in denying her motion to withdraw and vacate her guilty plea because (1) its decision was based on an erroneous and overly narrow interpretation of General Statutes § 54-lj and (2) there is no evidence in the record that defense counsel or the court complied with the requirements of § 54-lj when the court conducted her plea canvass. We affirm the judgment of the trial court.
