Cole v. State
Court of Appeals of Georgia
1Opinion of the Court
Barnes, Judge.
Zepplin Cole pled guilty to three counts of giving false names and a false birth date, and the trial court sentenced him to serve twelve months confinement. He appeals the trial court’s subsequent denial of his motion to withdraw his guilty plea. For the reasons that follow, we affirm.
After sentence is pronounced, withdrawal of a guilty plea is allowed only to correct a manifest injustice, and the trial court’s refusal to allow withdrawal will not be disturbed on appeal absent a manifest abuse of discretion. Beck v. State, 222 Ga. App. 168 (473 SE2d 263) (1996).
