Opinion:
In re: Nathaniel Hardy applying for remedial writs and writ of habeas corpus.
Writ denied. Relator had retained counsel. Entered into extensive plea bargaining. The colloquy recorded at the taking of the plea of guilty confirms a knowing and voluntary plea after complete legal consultation. The sentence of 18 years is correct.
