Taylor v. State
Annotate this CaseDefendant pled guilty to felony domestic assault in district court. Following sentencing, Ramsey County Community Corrections notified the district court that Defendant was required to register as a predatory offender due to his conviction. Defendant filed a motion to withdraw his guilty plea on the ground that he had not been aware that his conviction would trigger the requirement to register as a predatory offender. The district court denied the request. The court of appeals affirmed. The Supreme Court affirmed, holding that a defense attorney’s failure to advise a defendant about predatory offender registration requirements before the defendant enters a plea of guilty does not violate a defendant’s right to effective assistance of counsel, and therefore, Defendant was not entitled to withdraw his guilty plea.
