There is not a specific form. You need to state that you want to withdraw your plea and the reasons why you want to withdraw your plea.
A decision will be issued in writing and sent to the attorney that filed the appeal.
An appeal is more involved than filling out a form. There are several steps and time limitations. Meet with an attorney that handles appeals and they will be able to fully explain the process and help you file the appeal.
You should speak with the attorney for the defendant and seek guidance on this issue. The attorney can tell you what potential impact it may have on the case.

I discharged my Suspended sentence 6/2016 app to revoke was issued 8/16, warrant was issued 11/16. At my hearing the judge said he did not care that I completed my sentence. What can I do??
