Syllabus

The trial court did not abuse its discretion in overruling appellant's post-sentence motion to withdraw his guilty plea. Appellant failed to demonstrate a reasonable probability that, but for counsel's alleged errors in failing to advise him of the immigration consequences of his plea, he would have insisted on going to trial. Appellant demonstrated proficiency in English and did not request an interpreter, and the trial court properly addressed appellant's alleged inability to understand the proceedings. Judgment affirmed.
