Joshua Jeremiah GIPSON, Appellant, v. The STATE of Nevada, Respondent.
ORDER OF AFFIRMANCE
Gipson claims the district court erred by denying his claim that his plea was invalid because it was not knowingly, voluntarily, and intelligently entered. Gipson claimed his plea was invalid because he did not understand the potential penalty he was facing and he did not understand the factual basis for his plea to robbery with the use of a deadly weapon. Gipson filed a presentence motion to withdraw his guilty plea raising these same claims and he could have raised the denial of these claims in a direct appeal. By failing to do so, he waived his right to raise these claims. See Franklin v. State, 110 Nev. 750, 752, 877 P.2d 1058, 1059 (1994), overruled on other grounds by Thomas v. State, 115 Nev. 148, 979 P.2d 222 (1999). Therefore, we conclude the district court did not err by denying the petition, and we
ORDER the judgment of the district court AFFIRMED.
