When someone enters a guilty plea, he or she must agree to forfeit several rights, and one of those rights is the ability to file an appeal. With all rules, of course, there are exceptions. In plea agreements, some exceptions to the waiver of your right to appeal are as follows: nnIf your plea was not entered into freely, knowingly or voluntarily and you move to withdraw the plea before or after sentencing, but the trial court denies your motion to withdraw the plea; nIf you reserved the right to appeal a trial court’s ruling on a dispositive pretrial motion, which the trial court previously denied; ornIf the plea was an open plea to the judge and there was an error in sentencing.
