Illinois Appellate Court
Criminal Court
Postconviction Petitions
Court properly granted State's motion to dismiss postconviction petition, as no showing of substantial prejudice.. Defendant's statutory advisement that he may suffer immigration consequences from his plea was adequate to stem prejudice. The fact that Defendant pled guilty while knowing risk of deportation belies his assertion that his decision would have been different if he had been told the risk was a certainty.(GORDON and McBRIDE, concurring.)
