You had 10 days to appeal and 60 days to reopen you case. You are obviously outside those 2 limitations. You could speak to an experienced criminal defense attorney about bringing a habeas application but I am not certain how successful that would be. I think you are stuck with your plea.

answered on Feb 6, 2017

Is enforcement being sought via the courts or in a private licensing/certification setting? For example, if this were a legal ethics matter,... View More
