Summary

            Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Webster County, Kurt J. Stoebe, Judge.  APPEAL DISMISSED.  Considered by Tabor, P.J., Schumacher, J., and Vogel, S.J.  Buller, J., takes no part.  Opinion by Vogel, S.J.  (6 pages)

            A defendant seeks to vacate his guilty plea, alleging the district court erroneously denied his post-plea motion for adjudication of law points.  OPINION HOLDS: Because Clark failed to show good cause to pursue a direct appeal from his guilty plea, we dismiss this appeal for want of jurisdiction.
