People v. Dyas

Defendant appealed from the trial court’s denial of his motion to withdraw his guilty plea, arguing that the trial court denied him his right to counsel for post-plea proceedings. The appellate court vacated the trial court’s denial of the motion to withdraw guilty plea and remanded for further proceedings, finding that the trial court failed to properly admonish defendant under SCR 401(a) before accepting a waiver of counsel. (DAVENPORT, concurring and McDADE, specially concurring)
