Syllabus
Guilty plea negotiated plea agreement recommended sentence deviation withdraw. - Where a defendant has an expectation that the trial court will impose the recommended sentence that was the basis for the plea, and the trial court does not put the defendant on notice that it may deviate from the recommended sentence, the trial court errs in not giving the defendant an opportunity to withdraw his plea once the court determines that it will not be imposing the recommended sentence.
