ON MOTION FOR RECONSIDERATION

JAMES R. EYLER, J.

Maurice Andre Parker appeals from orders dismissing three petitions for writs of error coram nobis, filed in the Circuit Court for Prince George’s County, in which appellant challenged his convictions in three separate cases on the ground that his pleas of guilty and nolo contendere were not knowing and voluntary. We hold that each petition stated a cause of action. Consequently, we shall vacate the orders of dismissal and remand to the circuit court for further proceedings not inconsistent with this opinion.
