Q: Can i sue or file a complaint against this county
Recently i took a plea for a criminal case and received the final disposition now my license and other things have been suspended due to this case that wasn’t involved in the disposition my license is my way of working and the courts new this
A: There is no case against the county. The court protocol of accepting a guilty plea is to place that plea on the record with a clear explanation of its terms, conditions and collateral effects on one's life. Also, that plea is given "freely and voluntarily," with all understanding on its impact on one's future.
A: It sounds like the consequences of your guilty plea were not fully explained to you. If this is true AND if your guilty plea was entered within the past 30 days contact an attorney immediately. He or she will need to file a motion to withdraw the plea based upon inadequate explanation of the penalties, then seek a different resolution of the case. The motion must be filed within 30 days of the date the court entered a finding of guilt.
