Summary
Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Clinton County, Mark R. Lawson, Judge, and Phillip J. Tabor, District Associate Judge. AFFIRMED. Considered by Potterfield, P.J., Doyle, J., and Mahan, S.J. Tabor, J., takes no part. Opinion by Potterfield, P.J. (3 pages)
Christopher Goddard appeals the district court’s denial of his pre-plea motions to continue trial and waive his right to speedy trial, and the denial of his post-sentencing motion to set aside his guilty plea. OPINION HOLDS: Because Goddard’s guilty plea waived his right to challenge the court’s adverse pre-plea rulings and because his claim that his plea was not knowing and voluntary is not preserved for our review, we affirm.
