Can an original guilty plea be completely knowing and voluntary?

Question Presented (from Petition)

QUESTIONS PRESENTED ‘ 1) Can an ‘ original guilty plea be completely knowing and voluntary, when counsel, the government, and the district court wrongly advised defendant about | § 287 being a lawful predicate for an aggravated identity theft under § 1028A? And must the entire plea be vacated? 2) Is Plenary Resentencing necessary when the District Court based its § 301.1 obstruction enhancement on defendant's refusal to plead guilty to aggravated , identity theft § 1028A when the court had no jurisdiction to receive such plea? 3) Is Plenary Resentencing now mandatory considering the Supreme Court's recent decision in United States v. Dubin, No, 22-10? 4) Did the district court sentence Onamuti in excess of the statutory maximum? ¢ * . ‘ . . ; } . eed
