 The People of the State of New York, Respondent,
v
Mario Olmedo, Appellant.

Seymour W. James, Jr., The Legal Aid Society, New York (Harold V. Ferguson, Jr. of counsel), for appellant.

Cyrus R. Vance, Jr., District Attorney, New York (Jeffrey A. Wojcik of counsel), for respondent.

Judgment, Supreme Court, New York County (Renee A. White, J.), rendered May 17, 2011, convicting defendant, upon his plea of guilty, of criminal possession of a controlled substance in the third degree, and sentencing him to a term of five years' probation, unanimously affirmed.

While the question of whether a defendant was prejudiced by the lack of advice from the court about the deportation consequences of a guilty plea is generally to be determined by way of a hearing (see People v Peque, 22 NY3d 168, 200 [2013], cert denied 574 US &mdash, 135 S Ct 90 [2014]), under the circumstances of this case, viewed as a whole, we find no reasonable possibility that defendant could make the requisite showing of prejudice at a hearing. Concur—Acosta, J.P., Mazzarelli, Manzanet-Daniels, Gische and Kahn, JJ.
