If
you have been convicted of a crime in Mesa, Arizona
after a trial, you have the right to file a direct
appeal and have your case reviewed by a higher court.
If you enter into a plea agreement or plead guilty,
however, you generally forfeit your right to an appeal.
Mesa Defendants who waive their appeal rights still have
the right to seek post conviction review of their case
by filing a Petition for Post Conviction Relief or a
“Rule 32”. Issues that can be raised during Rule
32 proceedings include:
In Mesa, you have only 90 days after sentencing to file a Notice of Post-Conviction Relief. If you fail to timely seek post conviction relief from the court, you could be barred from ever challenging your guilty plea – regardless of how poorly your prior attorney may have performed.
