P. v. Meza CA2/2
Luis Francisco Meza appeals the denial of his motion to vacate his conviction pursuant to Penal Code section 1473.7.
In 2001, appellant entered into a plea bargain in which he pleaded guilty to one count of second degree robbery. On February 4, 2021, appellant filed a motion to vacate his conviction pursuant to section 1473.7. The trial court denied the motion based on its own credibility and factual findings following its review of the court file and a hearing at which appellant testified and the court heard argument. Appellant contends that because he established by a preponderance of the evidence that he lacked a meaningful understanding of the adverse immigration consequences of his plea, the trial court erred in denying his section 1473.7 motion to vacate his conviction. We disagree and affirm.
