Syllabus

The trial court's denial of appellant's post-sentence motion to withdraw his guilty plea was not an abuse of discretion. Appellant failed to prove the existence of a manifest injustice warranting the withdrawal of his plea, as the testimony presented at the hearing on appellant's motion established that: (1) there was no language barrier that prevented appellant from entering a knowing, intelligent, and voluntary guilty plea to assault and (2) appellant's counsel advised appellant of the immigration consequences of his guilty plea and did not perform deficiently in that regard. Judgment affirmed.
