P. v. Campos CA2/1
Jaime Campos is a lawful permanent resident of the United States. In 2011 he pleaded no contest to one count of burglary (Pen. Code, § 459) and one count of assault by means likely to produce great bodily injury (§ 245, subd. (a)(1)), and admitted an enhancement allegation that he personally inflicted great bodily injury upon a victim (§ 12022.7). The trial court sentenced him to five years in state prison. Upon his release in 2016, the United States Department of Homeland Security (DHS) detained him and initiated deportation proceedings. Campos filed a motion in the superior court to vacate his conviction under section 1473.7 on the ground that his trial counsel was constitutionally deficient for failing to advise him that his guilty plea would subject him to deportation. The court denied the motion and Campos appealed. We affirm.
