1Opinion of the Court
BEEZER, Circuit Judge:
Wilson Bigman appeals from the district court’s denial of his 28 U.S.C. § 2255 motion. Bigman pleaded guilty to second degree murder and received an eighteen year sentence. Bigman’s § 2255 motion challenged the effectiveness of counsel throughout his criminal proceedings. The district court summarily denied Bigman’s motion. We vacate the district court’s denial of Bigman’s § 2255 claim based upon a challenge to the voluntariness of his plea and remand for an evidentiary hearing.
I
We review de novo the denial of a § 2255 motion. Roth v. United States, 724 F.2d 836, 839…
