DEFENDANT WAS TOLD MERELY THAT DEPORTATION WAS A POSSIBILITY WHEN IT WAS MANDATORY, HE IS ENTITLED TO MOVE TO VACATE HIS GUILTY PLEA ON INEFFECTIVE ASSISTANCE GROUNDS (FIRST DEPT).

The First Department determined defendant should be given the opportunity to move to vacate his guilty plea on ineffective assistance grounds because he was not adequately warned of the deportation consequences:

Defendant was deprived of effective assistance when his counsel failed to advise him that his guilty plea to an aggravated felony would result in mandatory deportation, and instead merely advised him that deportation was a possibility … .

Defendant should be afforded the opportunity to move to vacate his plea upon a showing that there is a reasonable probability that he would not have pleaded guilty had he been made aware of the deportation consequences of his plea (see id.), and we hold the appeal in abeyance for that purpose. People v Rodriguez, 2018 NY Slip Op 07061, First Dept 10-23-18
