What is the test for a plea of guilty to a charge of sexual assault?
MultiRegion, United States of America
The following excerpt is from Salas v. U.S., 529 F.2d 1276 (9th Cir. 1975):
The government's reliance on Guthrie v. United States, 517 F.2d 416 (9th Cir. 1975), is misplaced. There, we held that the rule was complied with when the accused affirmed that he "in fact did the acts charged by the government." Id. at 418. In the case before us, no facts were referred to and no factual basis for the plea could, therefore, be developed.
