(KNZA)--A rural Netawaka man will have to wait until July to find out whether his motion to withdraw his no-contest plea to a charge of rape is granted.

37-year-old Scott Buchheit filed the motion just two days after entering the plea in February as part of a plea deal.   He had been scheduled to go on trial on 11 counts. 

In his motion to withdraw his plea, Buchheit cited ineffective counsel and stated that he was “ under psychological pressure” to make the deal.     

A hearing on the motion had been set for last week in Jackson County District Court but was continued to July 15th. At that time, County Attorney Shawna Miller says a judge will either grant the motion or proceed with Buchheit’s sentencing if the motion is denied.

A new attorney was appointed to represent Buchheit in March, his third in the case.

He was arrested in February 2015 following an investigation by the Jackson County Sheriff’s Department into alleged sex offenses involving an underage girl occurring between March 2008 and January 2015.
