1Opinion of the Court
Opinion for the court filed by Circuit Judge BUCKLEY.
BUCKLEY, Circuit Judge:
Rosemary Loughery appeals the district court’s denial of her pre- and post-sentencing motions to withdraw her plea of guilty to one count of conspiracy to violate the Arms Export Control Act. We hold that the district court did not abuse its discretion when it denied Loughery’s pre-sen-tence motion to withdraw her plea. We find, however, that Loughery was deprived of effective assistance of counsel. We therefore reverse the district court’s denial of Loughery’s post-sentence motion.
