Description
This appeal presents the issue of whether a party to a Rule 11 agreement, which was entered on the court reporter's record and agreed to by both parties under oath, can withdraw his consent to that agreement before the trial court renders a final written decree of divorce pursuant to the terms of the agreement. Appellant Alvin Chester Guyot, Jr. relies on a trial court docket entry notation as evidence that he timely and properly informed the trial court of his desire to withdraw his consent to the divorce agreement. The trial court noted on the docket sheet that Appellant's attorney informed the trial court at a hearing on Appellee's Motion to Sign Final Decree of Divorce that Appellant wished to withdraw his consent to the divorce agreement. There is no other evidence in the record that Appellant made a complaint by a timely objection, request, or motion putting the court on notice of Appellant's desire to withdraw from the agreement. Because we hold that a trial court docket sheet notation cannot be relied on to preserve error on appeal, we do not reach the issue presented by Appellant and affirm the trial court's judgment.
