stating that it is appropriate to consider federal precedent when interpreting Tennessee rules of criminal procedure patterned upon federal rules
stating that this factor is only relevant when a defendant establishes a “fair and just reason” granting the motion
finding that period of seven weeks between guilty plea and motion to withdraw was “a significant length of time”
determining that a nearly seven-week lapse was “a significant length of time” and weighed “somewhat against” granting the motion to withdraw guilty pleas
noting that one of the “most important” of the guidelines used by the federal courts was whether the defendant had asserted legal innocence
concluding the factor was neutral when no evidence was included regarding prejudice and the State’s evidence included documents that remained available
