OPINION

DeGENARO, J.

{¶1} Defendant-Appellant, Lexter Williams, appeals the August 23, 2011 judgment of the Mahoning County Court of Common Pleas overruling his post-sentence motion to withdraw his guilty plea to one count of escape. Williams contends that the trial court abused its discretion by denying the motion because he met his burden of establishing the existence of "manifest injustice." The State concedes the error.
