Syllabus

A district court found a sufficient factual basis to support the defendant's guilty plea based on the record and the State's offer of proof. An attorney does not actively misinform a defendant by failing to inform the defendant of the application of the eighty-five percent rule under N.D.C.C. § 12.1-32-09.1. Manifest injustice requiring withdrawal of a guilty plea does not exist where a defendant does not provide evidence that he did not understand the nature of his plea agreement.
