Clouse v. Smith
Clouse v. Smith
519 P.2d 1343; 30 Utah 2d 461; 1974 Utah LEXIS 695
(Pacific Reporter, Second Series)
Clouse v. Smith
Opinion of the Court
Appeal from a writ of habeas corpus petition. Affirmed.
Defendant pleaded guilty to burglary. He was represented by counsel at the time, who advised the court he was of the opinion defendant knowingly and voluntarily was entering such plea. This conclusion was fortified by answers of defendant to numerous questions asked by the court, obviously posed to protect defendant’s rights. Consequently, and based on the record, we conclude defendant’s sole point on appeal to be lacking in merit.
