1. ““ ‘Once the question of the validity of a guilty plea (or nolo contendere) plea has been raised, the burden is on the State to show that the plea was intelligently and voluntarily entered. The State may accomplish this end by two means, (1) showing on the record of the guilty plea hearing that the defendant was cognizant of all the rights he was waiving and the possible consequences of his plea; or (2) fill a silent record by use of extrinsic evidence that affirmatively shows that the guilty plea was knowing and voluntary.’ (Cit.)” White v. State, 211 Ga. App. 779 ( 440 SE2d 527 ) (1994). However, “(a)fter pronouncement of sentence, a ruling on a motion to withdraw a plea of guilty is within the [sound] discretion of the trial court and will not be disturbed on appeal absent a manifest abuse of such discretion.” (Citations and punctuation omitted). Bice v. State, 212 Ga. App. 184 ( 441 SE2d 507 ) (1994).”
