Court Watch: Newport Beach Defendant Seeks to Withdraw Probation Plea, Citing Innocence
An accused woman who pleaded guilty to a probation violation in Harbor Justice Center on June 5 subsequently requested to withdraw her plea, asserting she did not commit the alleged conduct. Her initial plea, made on the advice of her attorney, resulted in a three-year probation extension, but she later returned to court unaccompanied, seeking to reverse the admission of guilt.
