Dissenting Opinion

Berdon, J.,

dissenting. I would grant certification on the following issue: “Whether a claim of ineffective assistance of counsel at a probable cause hearing is waived by a guilty plea under the doctrine of North Carolina v. Alford, 400 U.S. 25 (1970), when the petitioner’s decision to enter such a plea could reasonably have been predicated upon the result of the probable cause hearing.”
