State v. Sharp
State v. Sharp, 2021 UT App 90 (Pohlman, J.)
Criminal
A defendant pleaded guilty, and after the defendant received a letter from the victim that he asserted was a recantation, the defendant moved to withdraw his guilty plea. The district court denied the motion. The Utah Court of Appeals affirmed, holding:
- The defendant did not show how the alleged recantation letter specifically impacted his understanding of the elements of the crime to which he pleaded guilty.
