State v. Hall

In State v. Hall, 2006 Ohio 6116, Montgomery App. No. 21449, the defendant's own, post-plea act of not appearing for sentencing made it unlikely that he would receive the more lenient sentence that the trial court had indicated a predisposition to impose, provided that he appeared for sentencing and "did not get into trouble." Id., P5. Furthermore, we never actually resolved the issue of which standard should be applied, the pre-sentence or the post-sentence standard, concluding that under either standard, the defendant's motion to withdraw his plea had no merit. Id., PP13-14.
