Syllabus

Vacate; sentence; plea agreement; violated; agreed sentence; jointly recommended sentence; sentencing range; greater sentence; withdraw; due process; ineffective assistance; resentencing. Vacated appellant's sentence and remanded the case to the trial court for resentencing. The State failed to fully set forth the jointly recommended sentence at the time of sentencing and arguably violated the plea agreement. The trial court did not expressly indicate whether it was accepting or rejecting the jointly recommended sentencing range, and it is unclear what occurred. Appellant was not given the opportunity to withdraw her guilty pleas, her due-process rights were violated, and ineffective assistance of counsel was shown.
