Syllabus

Motion to disqualify counsel; guilty plea; admission of guilt; waiver of right to appeal. Defendant-appellant's guilty plea waived his right to appeal nonjurisdictional defects except the constitutionality of the plea itself. Thus, defendant-appellant's assigned error that addressed the trial court's denial of a motion to discharge counsel, and not the constitutionality of the plea hearing, was waived when he entered a guilty plea.
