Criminal Procedure — plea withdrawal

Alvin C. Harris appeals from a judgment of conviction entered upon his guilty plea to bail jumping and disorderly conduct. Harris additionally appeals from postconviction orders denying his requests for plea withdrawal and sentence modification. We conclude that the circuit court properly exercised its discretion at sentencing. We further conclude that Harris failed to establish that plea withdrawal is necessary to avoid a manifest injustice. We affirm the circuit court’s denial of Harris’s postconviction order for plea withdrawal. This opinion will not be published.
