United States v. Harrison, No. 14-10078 (5th Cir. 2015)
Annotate this CaseDefendant pled guilty to one count of conspiracy to file false claims and subsequently moved to withdraw his guilty plea. On appeal, defendant challenged the district court's refusal to hold an evidentiary hearing on the motion. The court concluded that, combined with the findings and reasons of the district court, defendant has not alleged sufficient facts to establish, under the totality of the United States v. Carr factors, that the district court abused its discretion in declining to hold the hearing. Accordingly, the court saw no legal errors or clearly erroneous factual findings in the district court's decision and affirmed the judgment.
