At oral argument, the parties shall address whether a defendant can raise a challenge to the effective assistance of his attorney during the plea bargaining process where the defendant rejected the plea offer and subsequently received a fair trial, and, if so, what remedies should be available to the defendant. The parties may file supplemental briefs within 56 days of the date of this order, but they should not submit mere restatements of their application papers.
