A guilty plea waives most issues on appeal. If you feel you were pressured into pleading guilty and if this happened recently, there may still be time to bring a motion to withdraw the plea. Such motions seldom succeed. If it is too late to bring such a motion or if you bring one and it fails, your remedy is probably to seek a writ of habeas corpus.
