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

  • holding that “[a] guilty plea freely and voluntarily entered waives all defenses and objections, including constitutional guarantees”
  • following that rule to hold that defendant waived defenses to his conviction “by entering an Alford plea” since such a plea “is a variation of a guilty plea” with the same effect
  • noting “[a] guilty plea freely and voluntarily entered waives all defenses and objections, including constitutional guarantees”
  • stating a guilty plea waives challenges to a charge based on statute-of-limitations or speedy indictment grounds
  • “If an offense is a lesser-included one of the offense charged, a conviction or acquittal of the charged offense bars a subsequent prosecution of the lesser offense.”
  • “An Alford plea is different from a guilty plea in that when a defendant enters an Alford plea, 7 he or she does not admit participation in the acts constituting the crime.”
