A: You must immediately hire a lawyer and file a Motion to Set Aside your Plea. It probably will not be granted, but you might get some type of Judicial Discretion to save yourself. Diversion is not an option, and no competent attorney will plead his Client guilty to such a charge.
A: No but if it has been less than 10 days since you pled in general Sessions Court you can withdraw your plea.
