McCoy contended that prior 2015 misdemeanor guilty pleas, which were used to enhance his 2016 charge to a felony, were improperly entered due to a discrepancy between the oral pronouncement and the written judgment. The appellate court affirmed the motion court's judgment, finding no material difference between the oral pronouncement and the written judgment for the 2015 pleas, thereby rejecting McCoy's central premise.","primaryTopic":"criminal-procedure","topicSlugs":["criminal-procedure","other"],"outcomeNorm":"affirmed","officialSourceUrl":"https://www.courts.mo.gov/file.jsp?id=142375","detailUrl":"https://ott.law/missouri-courts/opinions/jerry-mccoy-v-state-of-missouri-d81569","relatedPracticeAreas":[{"slug":"criminal-law","label":"Criminal Law","href":"/practice-areas/criminal-law","score":40,"source":"tag","evidence":["tag: criminal-law","topic: criminal-procedure","text: state of missouri","text: conviction","text: misdemeanor"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/criminal-law"}],"role":"appellant"}]}
