How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• characterizing as plea bargain an agreement the State would recommend punishment not to exceed ten years' imprisonment
• trial court’s instruction substantially complied with statute “because it included the most severe action which could have befallen the defendant,” namely deportation
• state's recommendation did not have to be for a finite period in order to be a valid plea bargain; agreement of cap of eleven years which was accepted by court triggered the requirements of former 40(b)(1)
