Vasquez claimed his plea counsel misadvised him that he would not serve a prison sentence if his probation, granted after a guilty plea to robbery, was revoked. The motion court denied relief, finding Vasquez's claim refuted by the record and his testimony not credible. The appellate court affirmed, holding that a post-revocation prison term is a collateral consequence of a guilty plea, and the record did not support the claim of affirmative misadvice by counsel.","primaryTopic":"criminal-procedure","topicSlugs":["criminal-procedure","appellate-procedure"],"outcomeNorm":"unknown","officialSourceUrl":"https://www.courts.mo.gov/file.jsp?id=218535","detailUrl":"https://ott.law/missouri-courts/opinions/markel-vasquez-appellant-v-state-of-missouri-respondent-112191","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: sentence"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/criminal-law"},{"slug":"litigation","label":"Civil Litigation","href":"/practice-areas/litigation","score":12,"source":"topic","evidence":["topic: appellate-procedure"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/litigation"}],"role":"appellant"}]}
