IN THE COURT OF APPEAL OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA

THIRD APPELLATE DISTRICT

(Sacramento) ----

THE PEOPLE, C074699

Plaintiff and Respondent, (Super. Ct. No. 07F11748)

v.

YEVGENIY SONNIK,

Defendant and Appellant.

Defendant Yevgeniy Sonnik moved the trial court to vacate its judgment and to permit him to withdraw his plea pursuant to Penal Code section 1016.51 because the trial court provided an incomplete recitation of the possible immigration-related effects of his plea. The trial court denied defendant’s motion and his subsequent motion for reconsideration. Defendant now appeals, contending the trial court abused its discretion in denying his motion pursuant to section 1016.5.
