Summary
Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Scott County, Christine Dalton Ploof, District Associate Judge, and Henry W. Latham II and Tamra Roberts, Judges. AFFIRMED. Considered by Vaitheswaran, P.J., and Tabor and Ahlers, JJ. Opinion by Tabor, J. (6 pages)
Janya Hill appeals the judgment and sentence imposed after pleading guilty to first-degree theft and operating a motor vehicle without the owner’s consent. OPINION HOLDS: We are unable to reach the merits of Hill’s claim on appeal because she did not show good cause under Iowa Code section 814.6(1)(a)(3) (2020) and her guilty plea waived any challenge to her transfer to adult court under State v. Yodprasit, 564 N.W.2d 383, 385 (Iowa 1997). Thus we affirm both convictions.
