P. v. Cardona CA2/7
Carlos Perez Cardona appeals from the trial court’s order denying his motion under Penal Code section 1473.7 to vacate his 2005 conviction of corporal injury to a spouse, cohabitant, or child’s parent. Cardona, who faces mandatory deportation to Mexico, contends he did not meaningfully understand the immigration consequences of his guilty plea because his attorney did not explain that his plea would result in his deportation from the United States. Cardona also asserts his attorney failed to negotiate an immigration-safe disposition that would have allowed him to avoid deportation. We affirm.
