Description

Upon a plea of guilty, Victor Donald Wilde was convicted of second degree murder. He was sentenced to an indeterminate term of life in custody of the Board of Correction. On appeal, he urges that his guilty plea should not have been accepted. He also contends that the sentence imposed was excessive, and that the sentence was defective for failure to specify a minimum term. We affirm the judgment of conviction and the sentence. Wilde makes no specific challenge to the validity of his guilty plea. Rather, he invites a general review of the record to determine whether the district court complied with standards governing acceptance of guilty pleas. The applicable standards are set forth in I.C.R. 11(c) and in State v. Colyer, 98 Idaho 32, 557 P.2d 626 (1976). See also Schmidt v. State, 103 Idaho 340, 647 P.2d 796 (Ct.App.1982). These standards need not be elaborated here. Our examination of the record reveals that the district Judge conscientiously inquired upon all points covered by the standards. The Judge also specifically ascertained that the plea was not based upon any promises, and he informed Wilde that the court would not be bound by sentencing recommendations based upon plea negotiations. We hold that Wilde's plea of guilty was validly made and that it was properly accepted.
