State v. Hazel , 275 S.C. 392 ( 1980 )


Menu:
  • Littlejohn, Justice

    (dissenting) :

    Whether an accused person may withdraw a guilty plea after the same has been entered is a matter for the discretion of the trial judge before whom the plea of guilty was made. I do not think as a matter of law that the accused person here was entitled to withdraw the plea and would not hold that the judge abused his discretion. Accordingly, I dissent.
