Description
The defendant, former West Virginia Governor Arch A. Moore, Jr., signed a plea agreement with the government on April 12, 1990, in which he agreed to plead guilty to a five count indictment. However, he did not appear in court to enter his pleas of guilty until May 8, 1990. On the eve of his pleas, the government tendered to his attorney a twenty-six page memorandum that it intended to submit to the court in support of the guilty pleas. Defense counsel informed the government that the defendant would not agree to the factual proffer contained in the document and that, if the government insisted on filing it, there would be no guilty plea. The government agreed not to file the memo and presented a short oral proffer instead. The plea proceedings were held on May 8 and the court accepted the guilty pleas. Sentencing was set for July 10, 1990.
