Description
Robert Howell appeals from an order denying his motion to withdraw his plea of guilty to a charge of aggravated assault. He contends that the motion should have been granted because an affidavit which he filed in support of the motion put into issue his intent to commit the crime charged. We affirm the order denying the motion. After an altercation which occurred on August 20, 1980, Howell was charged with battery and aggravated assault. He retained private counsel, pleaded not guilty, and trial was set for March 2, 1981. A month before trial, Howell's retained counsel requested permission to withdraw from the case, citing his inability to maintain contact with his client. The request was granted. Howell then asked for and was given, court-appointed counsel. Howell's new attorney sought and was granted, a continuance of the trial date, to August 10, 1981, to allow him additional time to prepare a defense.
