People v. Olmedo

Judgment, Supreme Court, New York County (Renee A. White, J.), rendered May 17, 2011, convicting defendant, upon his plea of guilty, of criminal possession of a controlled substance in the third degree, and sentencing him to a term of five years’ probation, unanimously affirmed.

While the question of whether a defendant was prejudiced by the lack of advice from the court about the deportation consequences of a guilty plea is generally to be determined by way of a hearing (see People v Peque, 22 NY3d 168 , 200 [2013], cert denied 574 US —, 135 S Ct 90 [2014]), under the circumstances of this case, viewed as a whole, we find no reasonable possibility that defendant could make the requisite showing of prejudice at a hearing.
