“"`The mere subjective beliefs or expectations of a defendant as to the length of sentence to be imposed, unsupported by any promise from the State or indications by the court, are insufficient and unavailing to set aside a guilty plea as unknowingly or involuntarily made.' State v. Holman, 486 So.2d 500 , 503 (Ala. 1986)."”
5 later decisions quote this exact passage“The purpose of the rule allowing a defendant to withdraw a guilty plea when the trial judge refuses to carry out an agreement reached between the prosecutor (or the trial judge) and defense counsel is to insure that such a plea is made voluntarily, which necessarily requires that it be made with full knowledge of the attendant consequences.”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage“`THE COURT: At your lawyer's request, I am going to defer sentencing over to June the 15th.”
