No. S97A0128.

485 S.E.2d 204 (1997)

BATTLE, Warden, v. WILLIAMS.

Supreme Court of Georgia.

May 12, 1997.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Michael J. Bowers, Attorney General, Christopher S. Brasher, Assistant Attorney General, Atlanta, for Battle.

Henry L. Williams, Macon, pro se.


BENHAM, Chief Justice.

Henry L. Williams entered a plea of guilty of armed robbery in November 1993. He filed a petition for a writ of habeas corpus in June 1996. After a hearing in August 1996, the habeas corpus court granted the writ, holding that the record of the guilty plea proceedings did not reveal the factual basis for the plea, and that manifest injustice resulted from that lack. The warden appeals those holdings.
