People v. Candler

188 N.W.2d 638, 32 Mich. App. 339, 1971 Mich. App. LEXIS 1902
Michigan Court of Appeals·Decided April 2, 1971·No. Docket No. 9979·Published

Opinion

Per Curiam.

By his plea of guilty, defendant was convicted of attempted larceny in a building, MCLA § 750.360 (Stat Ann 1954 Rev § 28.592) and MCLA § 750.92 (Stat Ann 1962 Rev § 28.287), and was sentenced to a term of one to two years. On appeal, he contends that, in accepting his guilty plea, the trial [340] court erred in failing to: (1) ascertain defendant’s participation in the offense; (2) ascertain the truth of the plea; (3) inform defendant of the nature of the acccusation against him; and (4) inform defendant of the consequences of his plea.

After a careful review of the record in light of the requirements of GrCE. 1963, 785.3 and of the decisions in People v. Barrows (1959), 358 Mich 267; People v. Dunn (1968), 380 Mich 693; People v. Atkins (1966), 2 Mich App 199; People v. Leach (1966), 2 Mich App 713; and People v. Bartlett (1969), 17 Mich App 205, we find no reversible error. We are convinced that the defendant pled guilty because he was in fact guilty — that is our main concern. People v. Dunn, supra.

Affirmed.
