Re: filing for a appeal after pleaing guilty

Most of the time, after sentencing you cannot retract your plea....however, if your lawyer told you something what wasnt true, or there was something that you didnt understand, you can change your plea....is there any chance that you plead no contest? that would help for your appeal. Feel free to contact me directly...216.952.1990...You only have 30 days from the date of sentencing to appeal in most cases...
