I filed a 2255 motion, but since in my plea agreement I waived my right to file one (my atty told me it was not applicable to my case), so I want to file the next motion, is it a 2242. And is there anything special about this motion that needs to be included? Thank you VERY much for your hlp.

Hello Anne:

I know what a 2255 motion is, but I'm lost on a 2242. So, instead of asking about a particular motion, why don't you explain your situation and tell us what you're trying to do.

But... If you're trying to appeal a conviction that occurred as the result of a plea bargain, you ain't going to be successful.

excon I had a lea bargin, but my restitution was left open, thus I have moved and now want to file the motion after2255, sine I have a different judge.

Often it will still have to go back to the original court.
