U.S. v. SPEAR

KEVIN CHANG, Magistrate Judge

The defendant, by consent, has appeared before me pursuant to Rule 11, Fed.R.Crim.P., and has entered a plea of guilty to Count 1 of the Indictment. After examining the defendant under oath, I determined that the defendant is fully competent and capable of entering an informed plea, that the guilty plea was intelligently, knowingly and voluntarily made, and that the offense(s) charged is supported by an independent basis in fact establishing each of the essential elements of such offense(s). I further determined that the defendant intelligently, knowingly and voluntarily waived the GUILTY.RR-PA right to appeal or collaterally attack the sentence except as provided in the plea agreement. I therefore recommend that the plea of guilty be accepted and that the defendant be adjudged guilty and have sentence imposed accordingly.

IT IS SO RECOMMENDED.
