PEOPLE v. KUAR

2008-05920.

73 A.D.3d 1084 (2010)

900 N.Y.S.2d 654

THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, Respondent, v. SHAWN M. KUAR, Appellant.

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department.

Decided May 18, 2010.

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

The defendant contends that his trial counsel failed to inform him of the potential immigration consequences of his plea. Pursuant to Padilla v Kentucky, (559 US ___, 130 S.Ct. 1473), the failure of defense counsel to advise a defendant of the deportation consequences of a plea of guilty constitutes a violation of the defendant's Sixth Amendment right to counsel.
