Is there any case law in which a defendant was advised of their rights against self-incrimination and confrontation before pleading guilty?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Jones, D071746 (Cal. App. 2017):

Jones contends that the trial court failed to fully advise her of her rights under Boykin-Tahl (Boykin v. Alabama (1969) 395 U.S. 238 (Boykin) and In re Tahl (1969) 1 Cal.3d 122 (Tahl)); that while the court advised her of her right to a jury trial on the alleged prior convictions, it failed to advise her of her constitutional rights against self-incrimination and confrontation before she admitted the priors. She maintains that her jury trial waiver after the court's perfunctory advisement at sentencing does not establish she was aware of or understood her other rights with respect to her prior convictions, and there was no evidence her counsel discussed all of these constitutional rights with her,
