Syllabus

Appellant's guilty plea waived any error regarding the trial court's determination of his competency to stand trial, and, even if this were not so, the record reveals no error relating to this issue. There is also no evidence of insanity in the record. Appellant consulted his counsel frequently and asked the trial court thoughtful questions regarding the plea proceedings. At no point during the plea hearing did appellant indicate that he lacked the capacity to understand the nature of the proceedings or the implications of his guilty plea. The record establishes that appellant had a rational understanding of the plea proceedings and the charge against him. Judgment affirmed.
