STATE OF MICHIGAN COURT OF APPEALS PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF MICHIGAN, UNPUBLISHED February 13, 1998 Plaintiff-Appellee, v No. 189922 Wayne Probate Court LC No. 94-321778 TYSHONE BUTLER, Defendant-Appellant. Before: Markey, P.J., and Doctoroff and Smolenski, JJ. MEMORANDUM. Defendant entered a plea of admission to carjacking, MCL 750.529a(1); MSA 28.797a(1), and was committed to the custody of the Department of Social Services. Defendant appeals as of right. We affirm. Defendant raises four issues, all of which challenge the adequacy of the factual basis supplied by defendant in support of his plea. Defendant has waived appellate consideration of his challenges to the adequacy of the factual basis supplied in support of his plea by failing to move to withdraw his plea in the trial court, raising the same issues below as he now raises on appeal. People v Baugh, 127 Mich App 245, 247; 338 NW2d 199 (1983). Nevertheless, defendant’s admissions that he knew the carjacking was going to occur, that he served as a look out for his two codefendants who actually took the van from its owner at gun-point, and that he was to warn his codefendants taking the van if the police were approaching to allow them time to escape apprehension were sufficient t establish defendant’s guilt of aiding and abetting a o carjacking. MCL 767.39; MSA 28.979; MCL 750.529a(1); MSA 28.797(a)(1); People v Sean Jones (On Rehearing), 201 Mich App 449, 451; 506 NW2d 542 (1993); See People v Sarres, 188 Mich App 475, 476; 470 NW2d 86 (1991). Affirmed. -1­ /s/ Jane E. Markey /s/ Martin M. Doctoroff /s/ Michael R. Smolenski -2­
