Description
Offenses requiring registration; withdrawal of plea by certain defendants. Provides that prior to conviction for an offense requiring registration on the Sex Offender and Crimes Against Minors Registry due to the minority, physical helplessness, or mental incapacity of the victim, upon a determination by the court of the victim's age, physical helplessness, or mental incapacity, the court shall inform the defendant of his right to make a motion to withdraw a plea of guilty or nolo contendere. The bill also provides that if the court grants the defendant's motion to withdraw his plea, the case shall be heard by another judge unless the parties agree otherwise. The bill further provides that failure to make a determination as to the minority, physical helplessness, or mental incapacity of the victim or so advise the defendant of his right to make a motion to withdraw his plea does not otherwise invalidate the conviction.
