Honor a plea bargain made in good faith
Published by Deborah Johnson on Feb 07, 2004
Target: Adams County Court West Union, Ohio 45693
Region: United States of America
Background (Preamble):
My son was given a plea bargain in exchange for a guilty plea. The state offerred the agreement in good faith and my son was told that the judge would honor this . He would never have pleaded guilty except for this promise. Part of the plea bargain was for him to be released from prison on a "judicial release" after 9 months incarcerated. The state had a hearing after 11 months and decided not to honor the plea agreement stating that he has not served enough time for the charges.
Petition:
We, the undersigned, believe that the state when making a plea bargain agreement in good faith should honor this agreement especially when the defendant has recieved a good warden report. The defendant signed away his constitutional rights by signing this agreement.
