OPINION

GILDEA, Chief Justice.

This case presents the issue of whether the United States Supreme Court's decision in Padilla v. Kentucky, ___ U.S. ___, 130 S.Ct. 1473, 176 L.Ed.2d 284 (2010), holding that the Sixth Amendment right to counsel includes the right to be informed about the deportation consequences of a guilty plea, applies retroactively to cases on collateral review. In a motion to withdraw his guilty plea, respondent Rene Reyes Campos argued that Padilla applies retroactively to his conviction. Based on Padilla, Reyes Campos contended that his attorney's failure to warn him of the deportation consequences of his guilty plea constituted ineffective assistance of counsel and rendered his plea invalid. The district court determined that Padilla could not be applied to Reyes Campos' collateral attack on his conviction. The court of appeals reversed. Because we conclude that Padilla announced a new rule of criminal procedure that does not apply to a collateral review of Reyes Campos' conviction, we reverse.

On May 26, 2009, the State filed a delinquency petition in juvenile court, charging Reyes Campos with felony simple robbery committed for the benefit of a gang pursuant to Minn.Stat. §§ 609.24 and 609.229, subds. 2, 3(a), 4 (2010).1 Reyes Campos waived his right to a certification hearing, and the district court certified Reyes Campos for prosecution as an adult. Reyes Campos entered a guilty plea in district court on July 10, 2009, to an amended charge of simple robbery in violation of Minn.Stat. § 609.24.

At the plea hearing, defense counsel questioned Reyes Campos on the record regarding his understanding of the plea. Defense counsel asked questions regarding Reyes Campos' understanding that he was giving up his trial rights, including his presumption of innocence, right to present a defense, and right to be convicted only by a unanimous jury after the State proved its case beyond a reasonable doubt. But Reyes Campos was not questioned or informed about any immigration consequences of his plea.2 Nor was he asked whether he understood the immigration consequences of his guilty plea. See Minn. R.Crim. P. 15.01, subd. 1(6)(l) (providing that "[b]efore the judge accepts a guilty plea, the defendant must be sworn and questioned by the judge with the assistance of counsel," including questioning regarding the defendant's understanding that "[i]f the defendant is not a citizen of the United States, a guilty plea may result in deportation, exclusion from admission to the United States, or denial of naturalization as a United States citizen.")

The district court accepted Reyes Campos' guilty plea. The court stayed imposition of sentence, placed Reyes Campos on probation for 3 years, and ordered that, as a condition of probation, he serve 365 days in the Hennepin County workhouse, with credit for 50 days already spent in custody.

When he entered his guilty plea, Reyes Campos had just turned 18 years old, and was a legal permanent resident, but not a citizen, of the United States. Reyes Campos' conviction for simple robbery, in conjunction with the 365-day workhouse condition, resulted in Reyes Campos having an "aggravated felony" conviction under the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA). 8 U.S.C. § 1101(a)(43)(F), (G) (2006).3 The INA provides that "[a]ny alien who is convicted of an aggravated felony at any time after admission is deportable." 8 U.S.C. § 1227(a)(2)(A)(iii) (2006). In January 2010, Immigration and Customs Enforcement detained Reyes Campos, and Reyes Campos has since been deported to Nicaragua, his country of citizenship.

On May 26, 2010, Reyes Campos filed a motion to withdraw his guilty plea pursuant to Minn. R.Crim. P. 15.05, subd. 1.4 Reyes Campos relied in his motion on the United States Supreme Court's March 31, 2010, decision in Padilla, 130 S.Ct. 1473, holding that an attorney provides ineffective assistance of counsel under the Sixth Amendment by failing to inform a client of the deportation consequences of a guilty plea. Reyes Campos argued that Padilla applied retroactively to his case, and that under Padilla's holding he received ineffective assistance of counsel when his counsel failed to inform him of the immigration consequences of his plea. As a result of his counsel's ineffectiveness, Reyes Campos contended that his plea was uninformed and therefore invalid. See Hill v. Lockhart, 474 U.S. 52, 56, 106 S.Ct. 366, 88 L.Ed.2d 203 (1985) (holding that a defendant's guilty plea may be constitutionally invalid if the defendant received ineffective assistance of counsel, rendering his guilty plea not intelligent); State v. Ecker, 524 N.W.2d 712, 718 (Minn.1994) ("When an accused is represented by counsel, the voluntariness of the plea depends on whether counsel's advice was within the range of competence demanded of attorneys in criminal cases." (citations omitted) (internal quotation marks omitted)).

The district court denied Reyes Campos' motion to withdraw his guilty plea. The court ruled that Reyes Campos' counsel had not provided ineffective assistance when he failed to inform Reyes Campos about the immigration consequences of his plea. The court determined that Padilla did not apply retroactively, but had instead announced "a new constitutional rule because it impose[d] a new requirement on counsel under the federal constitution." The court relied on an earlier decision from our court, Alanis v. State, 583 N.W.2d 573 (Minn.1998), abrogated in part by Padilla v. Kentucky, 130 S.Ct. 1473, holding that counsel need not warn a client about the collateral deportation consequences of a guilty plea. The district court concluded that Reyes Campos had not proved that a manifest injustice occurred warranting withdrawal of his guilty plea, which was, the court found, accurate, voluntary, and intelligent. See Minn. R.Crim. P. 15.05, subd. 1 (noting that a plea may be withdrawn, even after sentencing, if "withdrawal is necessary to correct a manifest injustice"); see also Perkins v. State, 559 N.W.2d 678, 688 (Minn. 1997) ("Manifest injustice occurs if a guilty plea is not accurate, voluntary, and intelligent, and thus the plea may be withdrawn."). Reyes Campos filed a motion to reconsider, which the court also denied.

The court of appeals reversed. Reyes Campos v. State, 798 N.W.2d 565 (Minn. App.2011). The court ruled that Padilla applies retroactively to cases on collateral review, because Padilla did "not announce a new rule of criminal procedure." Id. at 569. We granted the State's petition for review.

The primary issue presented in this case is whether the rule announced in Padilla applies retroactively to a claim of ineffective assistance of counsel raised on collateral review. Reyes Campos argues that under the Court's holding in Padilla he received ineffective assistance of counsel rendering his plea uninformed and invalid because his attorney failed to inform him about the deportation consequences of his guilty plea. The State contends, however, that Padilla announced a new rule of constitutional criminal procedure and, as a result, Padilla's holding cannot be applied retroactively to Reyes Campos' conviction, which became final several months before Padilla was decided. Alternatively, the parties raise the issue of whether Reyes Campos should be allowed to withdraw his guilty plea because the district court failed to provide him with the general immigration advisory required by Minn. R.Crim. P. 15.01, subd. 1(6)(l).

We review a district court's decision to deny a motion to withdraw a guilty plea under Minn. R. Civ. P. 15.05, subd. 1, for an abuse of discretion. See Barragan v. State, 583 N.W.2d 571, 572 (Minn.1998). But the question of whether Padilla applies retroactively to Reyes Campos' conviction is a legal one that we review de novo. See State v. Houston, 702 N.W.2d 268, 270 (Minn.2005).

I.

Reyes Campos argues that Padilla applies retroactively to his claim of ineffective assistance of counsel raised on collateral review. To provide context for the analysis of the retroactivity question, we begin with a discussion of the law applicable to claims of ineffective assistance of counsel in the guilty plea context raised before Padilla, and then turn to an analysis of Padilla itself. With this background in mind, we then return to the retroactivity question. As set forth below, we conclude that Padilla does not apply retroactively.

A.

Before Padilla, to determine whether a criminal defendant received ineffective assistance of counsel in the context of a guilty plea, we applied the standard from Strickland v. Washington, 466 U.S. 668, 104 S.Ct. 2052, 80 L.Ed.2d 674 (1984). See Scruggs v. State, 484 N.W.2d 21, 25 (Minn. 1992); see also Hill v. Lockhart, 474 U.S. 52, 57-59, 106 S.Ct. 366, 88 L.Ed.2d 203 (1985) (applying the Strickland standard to challenges to guilty pleas based on ineffective assistance of counsel). Under Strickland, the defendant must show that "counsel's representation fell below an objective standard of reasonableness." 466 U.S. at 688, 104 S.Ct. 2052; see also King v. State, 562 N.W.2d 791, 795 (Minn.1997). The defendant must also demonstrate "a reasonable probability that, but for counsel's errors, he would not have pleaded guilty and would have insisted on going to trial." Hill, 474 U.S. at 59, 106 S.Ct. 366; see also Premo v. Moore, ___ U.S. ___, 131 S.Ct. 733, 744, 178 L.Ed.2d 649 (2011) (emphasizing that under Strickland's prejudice prong in the guilty plea context, the prejudice question is whether there was a "reasonable probability that [the defendant] would not have entered his plea but for his counsel's deficiency").

Our precedent before Padilla held that the first prong of the Strickland test was not met in cases in which attorneys failed to advise their clients of the deportation consequences of guilty pleas. See Alanis v. State, 583 N.W.2d 573, 575, 578-79 (Minn.1998). In Alanis, we concluded that because deportation was merely a collateral consequence of a guilty plea, the defendant's "attorney was under no obligation to advise him of the deportation possibility and, therefore, the failure to so inform him could not have fallen below an objective standard of reasonableness as required by Strickland." Id. at 579. Courts around the country, state and federal, were nearly unanimous on this question, holding as we did in Alanis that the failure to advise a defendant about the collateral deportation consequences of a guilty plea was not ineffective assistance of counsel. See Chaidez v. United States, 655 F.3d 684, 690-91 (7th Cir.2011) (collecting federal cases holding that failure to warn a client of the deportation consequences of a guilty plea did not constitute ineffective assistance of counsel), cert. granted, ___ U.S. ___, 132 S.Ct. 2101, ___ L.Ed.2d ___ (2012); Commonwealth v. Clarke, 460 Mass. 30, 949 N.E.2d 892, 898 (2011) (same); People v. Kabre, 29 Misc.3d 307, 905 N.Y.S.2d 887, 893-94 (N.Y.Crim.Ct.2010) (collecting federal and state cases); Gabriel J. Chin & Richard W. Holmes Jr., Effective Assistance of Counsel and the Consequences of Guilty Pleas, 87 Cornell L.Rev. 697, 706-08 (2002) (collecting state and federal cases holding that the right to effective assistance of counsel did not include the right to be informed about the collateral consequences of a guilty plea).

The Supreme Court, however, reached a different conclusion in Padilla v. Kentucky, ___ U.S. ___, 130 S.Ct. 1473, 1487, 176 L.Ed.2d 284 (2010). Padilla had been a lawful permanent resident of the United States for more than 40 years when he pleaded guilty to the transportation of large quantities of marijuana, and as a result of his plea, he was facing deportation at the time he brought his post-conviction claim. Id. at 1477-78. The Kentucky Supreme Court had dismissed Padilla's request for postconviction relief on the basis of ineffective assistance of counsel because it concluded that deportation was a collateral consequence of Padilla's guilty plea, and "collateral consequences are outside the scope of representation required by the Sixth Amendment." Commonwealth v. Padilla, 253 S.W.3d 482, 483 (Ky.2008).

The United States Supreme Court observed that "deportation is a particularly severe `penalty.'" Padilla, 130 S.Ct. at 1481 (quoting Fong Yue Ting v. United States, 149 U.S. 698, 740, 13 S.Ct. 1016, 37 L.Ed. 905 (1893)). The Court explained that "recent changes in our immigration law have made removal nearly an automatic result for a broad class of noncitizen offenders." Id. at 1478. Consequently, under contemporary law, "deportation is an integral part — indeed, sometimes the most important part — of the penalty that may be imposed on noncitizen defendants who plead guilty to specified crimes." Id. at 1480.

After acknowledging that many lower courts had agreed with the analysis of the Kentucky Supreme Court that "collateral consequences are outside the scope of representation required by the Sixth Amendment," the Court explained that its own jurisprudence had "never applied a distinction between direct and collateral consequences to define the scope of constitutionally `reasonable professional assistance' required under Strickland." Id. at 1481 (quoting Strickland, 466 U.S. at 689, 104 S.Ct. 2052). Without deciding more generally whether a collateral/direct consequences distinction would ever be appropriate, the Court determined that because of deportation's "close connection to the criminal process [it is] uniquely difficult to classify [it] as either a direct or a collateral consequence. The collateral versus direct distinction is thus ill-suited to evaluating a Strickland claim concerning the specific risk of deportation." Id. at 1482. Therefore, the Court held that "advice regarding deportation is not categorically removed from the ambit of the Sixth Amendment right to counsel," and that Strickland applied to Padilla's claim. Id.

In analyzing whether representation by Padilla's counsel "fell below an objective standard of reasonableness," the Court reiterated that the Strickland inquiry is "linked to the practice and expectations of the legal community: `The proper measure of attorney performance remains simply reasonableness under prevailing professional norms.'" Padilla, 130 S.Ct. at 1482 (quoting Strickland, 466 U.S. at 688, 104 S.Ct. 2052). The Court then looked to numerous authorities, including the American Bar Association, criminal defense organizations, and state bar associations that "universally require defense attorneys to advise as to the risk of deportation consequences for non-citizen clients," to conclude that "[t]he weight of prevailing professional norms supports the view that counsel must advise her client regarding the risk of deportation." Id. Based on "longstanding Sixth Amendment precedents, the seriousness of deportation as a consequence of a criminal plea, and the concomitant impact of deportation on families living lawfully in this country," the Court held that in order to satisfy the reasonableness standard under Strickland, "counsel must inform her client whether his plea carries a risk of deportation." Id. at 1486.

There is no dispute in this case that Reyes Campos' counsel was ineffective under Padilla, because counsel did not advise Reyes Campos of the immigration consequences of his guilty plea. See id.5 But under our precedent at the time of Reyes Campos' plea, his counsel was not ineffective. See Alanis, 583 N.W.2d at 579. The question we must determine is whether Padilla applies retroactively to collateral review of Reyes Campos' conviction. We turn to that question now.

B.

Reyes Campos' conviction was final before Padilla was decided. See O'Meara v. State, 679 N.W.2d 334, 340 (Minn.2004) (discussing finality), overruled on other grounds by Danforth v. Minnesota, 552 U.S. 264, 128 S.Ct. 1029, 169 L.Ed.2d 859 (2008).6 Therefore, Reyes Campos cannot establish an ineffective assistance of counsel claim unless he can avail himself of retroactive application of the Supreme Court's holding in Padilla. See Beard v. Banks, 542 U.S. 406, 411, 124 S.Ct. 2504, 159 L.Ed.2d 494 (2004) (noting that a retroactivity analysis only proceeds when the defendant's conviction is final before the Supreme Court's decision at issue is released); Lambrix v. Singletary, 520 U.S. 518, 527, 117 S.Ct. 1517, 137 L.Ed.2d 771 (1997).

We follow the retroactivity principles outlined in Teague v. Lane, 489 U.S. 288, 109 S.Ct. 1060, 103 L.Ed.2d 334 (1989), when considering whether a rule of federal constitutional law applies to a criminal conviction that was final when the rule was announced. See Danforth v. State, 761 N.W.2d 493, 499 (Minn.2009). Under Teague, after determining that the defendant's conviction was final at the time of the Supreme Court decision in question, "we first ask whether the rule of federal constitutional criminal procedure is new, or whether it is merely a predictable extension of a pre-existing doctrine." State v. Houston, 702 N.W.2d 268, 270 (Minn. 2005). Old rules of federal constitutional criminal procedure apply "both on direct and collateral review, but a new rule is generally applicable only to cases that are still on direct review." Whorton v. Bockting, 549 U.S. 406, 416, 127 S.Ct. 1173, 167 L.Ed.2d 1 (2007); accord Danforth, 761 N.W.2d at 496 (explaining that "if a case is pending on direct review when a new rule of federal constitutional criminal procedure is announced, the defendant is entitled to benefit from that new rule. But if the defendant's conviction is already final at the time the new rule is announced, then the criminal defendant ordinarily may not avail himself of the new rule."). A new rule applies retroactively in collateral proceedings under only two narrow exceptions: if the rule announced is substantive or if the rule is a "`watershed rul[e] of criminal procedure' implicating the fundamental fairness and accuracy of the criminal proceeding." Saffle v. Parks, 494 U.S. 484, 495, 110 S.Ct. 1257, 108 L.Ed.2d 415 (1990) (quoting Teague, 489 U.S. at 311, 109 S.Ct. 1060).

1.

The threshold question under Teague is whether Padilla announced a new rule. Reyes Campos argues that Padilla did not announce a new rule, and therefore it applies retroactively to his guilty plea. He asserts that Padilla is an old rule because it merely applied the "long-standing" principles of Strickland in the context of professional norms that now recognize the importance of immigration consequences in the context of a guilty plea. Moreover, Reyes Campos argues that because Padilla "itself arose in the context of a state post-conviction proceeding" Padilla's rule must be retroactive or "Jose Padilla himself could not have benefited from it because he only raised the issue of his trial counsel's failure to advise him about the immigration consequences of his plea for the first time in his state post-conviction petition."

The State, on the other hand, contends that Padilla was an application of Strickland in "a novel setting," and it therefore constitutes a new rule. The State emphasizes that the near uniform agreement among state and federal courts prior to Padilla, holding that "an attorney's failure to advise a defendant of the immigration consequences of his plea was not ineffective assistance of counsel because such advice related to a collateral matter," indicates that reasonable jurists clearly would not have felt "compelled" by existing Supreme Court precedent to rule in Reyes Campos' favor.

A Supreme Court "holding constitutes a new rule within the meaning of Teague if it breaks new ground, imposes a new obligation on the States or the Federal Government, or was not dictated by precedent existing at the time the defendant's conviction became final." Graham v. Collins, 506 U.S. 461, 467-68, 113 S.Ct. 892, 122 L.Ed.2d 260 (1993) (citation omitted) (internal quotation marks omitted) (requiring courts to look to the "legal landscape" as it existed at the time of the defendant's conviction in determining whether a rule is new); see also Houston, 702 N.W.2d at 270. While recognizing that it has "stated variously the formula for determining when a rule is new," O'Dell v. Netherland, 521 U.S. 151, 156, 117 S.Ct. 1969, 138 L.Ed.2d 351 (1997), the Supreme Court has emphasized that the Teague doctrine serves to "validate[ ] reasonable, good-faith interpretations of existing precedents made by state courts even though they are shown to be contrary to later decisions," Butler v. McKellar, 494 U.S. 407, 414, 110 S.Ct. 1212, 108 L.Ed.2d 347 (1990). A rule therefore should not be applied to a defendant on collateral review under Teague "unless it can be said that a state court, at the time the conviction or sentence became final, would have acted objectively unreasonably by not extending the relief later sought in federal court." O'Dell, 521 U.S. at 156, 117 S.Ct. 1969.7

The question of whether Padilla announced a new rule or was merely an application of the Court's longstanding Strickland analysis has resulted in a split among the United States Courts of Appeals. The Third Circuit in United States v. Orocio, held that Padilla "is retroactively applicable on collateral review." 645 F.3d 630, 634 (3d Cir.2011). The Fifth, Tenth, and Seventh Circuits have reached the opposite conclusion, holding that Padilla announced a new rule of federal constitutional criminal procedure that is not applicable to defendants whose convictions became final before Padilla was decided. See United States v. Amer, 681 F.3d 211 (5th Cir.2012); United States v. Chang Hong, 671 F.3d 1147 (10th Cir.2011); Chaidez v. United States, 655 F.3d 684 (7th Cir.2011), cert. granted, ___ U.S. ___, 132 S.Ct. 2101, ___ L.Ed.2d ___ (2012). Federal district courts and state courts, using an analysis similar to that of the circuit courts, have also struggled with the retroactivity question and have reached differing conclusions. Compare United States v. Agoro, Nos. CR 90-102 ML, CR 91-074 ML, 2011 WL 6029888, at *5-7 (D.R.I. Nov. 16, 2011) (collecting cases and concluding Padilla is not retroactive); Sarria v. United States, No. 11-20730-CIV, ___ F.Supp.2d ___, ___-___, 2011 WL 4949724, at *5-6 (S.D.Fla. Oct. 18, 2011) (same); Doan v. United States, 760 F.Supp.2d 602, 604-05 (E.D.Va.2011) (same), with United States v. Dass, Crim. No. 05-140(3), 2011 WL 2746181, at *2-4 (D.Minn. July 14, 2011) (collecting cases and concluding that Padilla announced an old rule and should apply retroactively to defendants on collateral review); Marroquin v. United States, No. M-10-156, 2011 WL 488985, at *2 (S.D.Tex. Feb. 4, 2011) (same); Commonwealth v. Clarke, 460 Mass. 30, 949 N.E.2d 892, 904 (2011) (same); People v. Garcia, 29 Misc.3d 756, 907 N.Y.S.2d 398, 404-05 (N.Y.Sup.Ct. 2010) (same).

After reviewing our retroactivity analysis under Teague, as well as decisions from other courts considering whether Padilla applies retroactively to cases on collateral review, we conclude that Padilla announced a new rule of federal constitutional criminal procedure. The Teague analysis requires us to determine if the decision in Padilla was compelled by precedent. See Lambrix, 520 U.S. at 538, 117 S.Ct. 1517 (explaining that the question is not whether the decision announced by the Supreme Court is a "reasonable interpretation of prior law," but rather "whether no other interpretation was reasonable"). It is not enough that the decision was "`controlled' or `governed' by prior opinions." Butler, 494 U.S. at 415, 110 S.Ct. 1212. Even in that situation, where there are "reasonable contrary conclusions reached by other courts," such that "the outcome ... was susceptible to debate among reasonable minds," the rule announced is a new one. Id.; see also Houston, 702 N.W.2d at 271 (explaining that "it is not enough that a new constitutional rule of procedure is logically an extension of some precedent, as that is true of virtually all recently announced rules"; rather the result must have been "compelled by existing precedent").

With this standard in mind, we agree with the Fifth, Seventh, and Tenth Circuits that the state of the law prior to the Padilla decision means that Padilla announced a new rule. Prior to Padilla, our court as well as "the lower federal courts, including at least nine Courts of Appeals, had uniformly held that the Sixth Amendment did not require counsel to provide advice concerning any collateral ... consequences of a guilty plea." Chaidez, 655 F.3d at 690; see also Padilla, 130 S.Ct. at 1481 & n. 9 (acknowledging that the Kentucky Supreme Court was "far from alone in [its] view" that failure to warn a client of the deportation consequences of a guilty plea did not constitute ineffective assistance of counsel); Chang Hong, 671 F.3d at 1154 ("[E]leven federal circuits, more than thirty states, and the District of Columbia have held that lawyers need not explain collateral consequences [under the Sixth Amendment]." (citing Chin & Holmes, supra, at 699)); Clarke, 949 N.E.2d at 898 (explaining that "the Supreme Court in Padilla effectively changed the law in the nine circuit courts of the United States Court of Appeals that had previously addressed the issue"). This overwhelming "unanimity among the lower courts is compelling evidence that reasonable jurists reading the Supreme Court's precedents [prior to Padilla] could have disagreed about the outcome of Padilla." Chaidez, 655 F.3d at 690; see also Caspari v. Bohlen, 510 U.S. 383, 393, 114 S.Ct. 948, 127 L.Ed.2d 236 (1994) (finding it persuasive in determining that a rule advocated by the petitioner was new that two federal courts of appeals and several state courts of last resort had reached different conclusions on the issue, clearly suggesting that "reasonable jurists reviewing our precedents" would not have felt compelled to reach the result urged by the petitioner). Prior to Padilla, it clearly would not have been "illogical or even a grudging application" of Strickland for a court to conclude that effective assistance of counsel did not require an attorney to inform his client of the deportation consequences of a guilty plea. See Butler, 494 U.S. at 415, 110 S.Ct. 1212.8

Our conclusion that Padilla announced a new rule also finds support in the multiple opinions produced by the decision. When the Supreme Court expresses an "array of views" in a case, this can also suggest "that the rule announced ... was, in light of [the] Court's precedent, `susceptible to debate among reasonable minds.'" O'Dell, 521 U.S. at 159-60, 117 S.Ct. 1969 (quoting Butler, 494 U.S. at 415, 110 S.Ct. 1212); see also Beard, 542 U.S. at 415, 124 S.Ct. 2504 (explaining that "there is no need to guess" whether a rule was not compelled by precedent because in the case in question "four Justices dissented"); Houston, 702 N.W.2d at 272-73 (finding it persuasive that the Blakely decision "was issued by a closely divided five to four court," in determining that Blakely announced a "new rule of constitutional criminal procedure unavailable for collateral use").

The majority opinion in Padilla was joined by five justices, with two justices concurring and two justices in dissent. 130 S.Ct. 1473. Justice Alito identified Padilla's holding as a "dramatic departure from precedent" and a "dramatic expansion of the scope of criminal defense counsel's duties under the Sixth Amendment," constituting a "new approach," that "marks a major upheaval in Sixth Amendment law." Id. at 1488-92 (Alito, J., concurring). Justice Scalia, in dissent, also described the majority's holding as well outside the previous scope of the Court's Sixth Amendment jurisprudence, explaining that "[w]e have never held ... that once counsel is appointed all professional responsibilities of counsel — even those extending beyond defense against the prosecution — become constitutional commands." Id. at 1495 (Scalia, J., dissenting). Moreover, the dissent noted that in all previous cases regarding the right to effective assistance of counsel "[w]e have limited the Sixth Amendment to legal advice directly related to defense against prosecution of the charged offense," and have never "required advice of counsel regarding consequences collateral to prosecution." Id.; see also Chang Hong, 671 F.3d at 1155 (taking "the concurrence and dissent as support for our conclusion that reasonable jurists did not find the rule in Padilla compelled or dictated by the Court's prior precedent"); Chaidez, 655 F.3d at 689 ("That the members of the Padilla Court expressed such an `array of views' indicates that Padilla was not dictated by precedent." (quoting O'Dell, 521 U.S. at 159, 117 S.Ct. 1969)). The fact that the Court itself was divided as to the import of its decision further confirms our determination that the result in Padilla was not dictated by Supreme Court precedent.

We acknowledge the Supreme Court's caution that the mere existence of conflicting law or dissent does not necessarily mean that a rule is new. See Beard, 542 U.S. at 416 n. 5, 124 S.Ct. 2504 (noting that "[b]ecause the focus of the inquiry is whether reasonable jurists could differ as to whether precedent compels the sought-for rule, we do not suggest that the mere existence of a dissent suffices to show that the rule is new"). Courts conducting retroactivity analysis are to engage in their own independent examination of the Supreme Court's precedent, and not simply rely on the interpretations of other courts. See Williams v. Taylor, 529 U.S. 362, 383, 120 S.Ct. 1495, 146 L.Ed.2d 389 (2000) (stating "[t]he often repeated language that Teague endorses `reasonable, good-faith interpretations' by state courts is an explanation of policy, not a statement of law ... Teague does not direct federal courts to spend less time or effort scrutinizing the existing federal law, on the ground that they can assume the state courts interpreted it properly" (citations omitted) (internal quotation marks omitted)). Even under an independent "objective reading of the relevant cases," however, we conclude that Padilla was not dictated by precedent. Stringer v. Black, 503 U.S. 222, 237, 112 S.Ct. 1130, 117 L.Ed.2d 367 (1992); see Chang Hong, 671 F.3d at 1156 ("Padilla extended the Sixth Amendment right to effective counsel and applied it to an aspect of a plea bargain previously untouched by Strickland."); Chaidez, 655 F.3d at 691.

In urging us to conclude that Padilla announced an old rule, Reyes Campos argues that Padilla could not have announced a new rule because it relied on Strickland, a rule "which of necessity requires a case-by-case examination of the evidence." Williams, 529 U.S. at 382, 120 S.Ct. 1495 (quoting Wright v. West, 505 U.S. 277, 308-09, 112 S.Ct. 2482 (Kennedy, J., concurring)). The Court has explained that when such a rule is at issue "we can tolerate a number of specific applications without saying that those applications themselves create a new rule." Id. According to Reyes Campos, because Strickland developed "a rule designed for the specific purpose of evaluating a myriad of factual contexts, it will be the infrequent case that yields a result so novel that it forges a new rule, one not dictated by precedent." Id.; see also Clarke, 949 N.E.2d at 900 (explaining that Padilla merely applied Strickland, which by its terms requires "that a court reviewing an ineffective assistance claim `must judge the reasonableness of counsel's challenged conduct on the facts of the particular case, viewed as of the time of counsel's conduct'" (quoting Strickland, 466 U.S. at 690, 104 S.Ct. 2052)).

We disagree with Reyes Campos' suggestion that the case-by-case examination inherently required under Strickland categorically indicates that a Court decision applying Strickland will never be a new rule. See Chaidez, 655 F.3d at 693. The Court has made clear that even when the principles advanced by precedent "conceived of at a high level of generality ... could be thought to support" the outcome in a particular case, that does not preclude the conclusion that a rule announced is new. See Beard, 542 U.S. at 416, 124 S.Ct. 2504; see also Sawyer v. Smith, 497 U.S. 227, 236, 110 S.Ct. 2822, 111 L.Ed.2d 193 (1990) (explaining that even though the Court "d[id] not doubt that [its] earlier Eighth Amendment cases lent general support to the conclusion" reached in a subsequent case, that fact alone did not compel the conclusion that the rule announced in the subsequent case was old because "the test would be meaningless if applied at this level of generality").

Moreover, new rules that do not overturn previous cases are often announced in the context of a previous case or line of precedent. That a new rule relied on a previous case, however, is not enough to show that the rule in question is an old one. In Butler v. McKellar, for example, the Court concluded that Arizona v. Roberson, 486 U.S. 675, 108 S.Ct. 2093, 100 L.Ed.2d 704 (1988), holding that the Fifth Amendment barred police-initiated interrogation following a suspect's request for counsel in a separate investigation, was a new rule not dictated by precedent. 494 U.S. 407, 415, 110 S.Ct. 1212, 108 L.Ed.2d 347 (1990). Though Roberson had cited and relied upon Edwards v. Arizona, 451 U.S. 477, 101 S.Ct. 1880, 68 L.Ed.2d 378 (1981), which required police, during continuous custody, to refrain from all further questioning once an accused invokes the right to counsel on any offense, the Court held that the rule in Roberson was not dictated by Edwards. Butler, 494 U.S. at 415, 110 S.Ct. 1212. In so holding, the Court determined that even though the Roberson opinion "found Edwards controlling," the "outcome in Roberson was susceptible to debate among reasonable minds," and therefore constituted a new rule. Butler, 494 U.S. at 415, 110 S.Ct. 1212. Just as Roberson applied well-established Fifth Amendment jurisprudence in a new context, so too did Padilla apply Strickland in a new context, not dictated by earlier precedent.

And while we agree with Reyes Campos that Strickland generally sets forth the test relevant to assessing the effectiveness of counsel under the Sixth Amendment, this does not mean that all cases expanding on Strickland's jurisprudence will constitute old rules. Padilla is more than just a routine application of Strickland to a unique set of facts. Rather, unlike any previous decision, Padilla "requires a criminal defense attorney to provide advice about matters not directly related to their client's criminal prosecution." Chaidez, 655 F.3d at 693; see Chang Hong, 671 F.3d at 1156 ("Padilla is a new rule of constitutional law not because of what it applies — Strickland — but because of where it applies — collateral immigration consequences of a plea bargain.").

Courts agreeing with Reyes Campos' contention that Padilla did not constitute a new rule have explained that lower courts misinterpreted the Court's Strickland precedent when they concluded that advice about the collateral consequences of a guilty plea did not fall within the Sixth Amendment right to the effective assistance of counsel. See Orocio, 645 F.3d at 638. Because "the Padilla Court noted that it had never applied a distinction between direct and collateral consequences to define the scope of constitutionally reasonable professional assistance required under Strickland," these courts have concluded that "[t]he application of Strickland to the Padilla scenario is not so removed from the broader outlines of precedent as to constitute a new rule." Orocio, 645 F.3d at 638 (citations omitted) (internal quotation marks omitted).

But the Supreme Court's precedent prior to Padilla did, in fact, provide indications that a direct and collateral consequences distinction was an appropriate one for courts to draw in deciding ineffective assistance of counsel claims. Even though the Court had never expressly endorsed the collateral and direct consequences distinction that we and many other lower courts applied, Padilla was a dramatic departure from previous case law because it announced for the first time that the distinction between collateral and direct consequences of a conviction was inappropriate in the immigration context. Chaidez, 655 F.3d at 691; see also Caspari, 510 U.S. at 393, 114 S.Ct. 948 (concluding that a Double Jeopardy Clause rule was new because though previous cases "may not have foreclosed" the ruling, "neither did any of them apply the Clause in that context"). Earlier Supreme Court cases arguably had implicitly endorsed a distinction between direct and collateral consequences in holding that a defendant's plea was voluntary when the defendant was "fully aware of the direct consequences" of the plea, making the inclusion of collateral consequences into the Sixth Amendment right to counsel context a departure from previous rulings. Chaidez, 655 F.3d at 691 (emphasis added) (quoting Brady v. United States, 397 U.S. 742, 747, 90 S.Ct. 1463, 25 L.Ed.2d 747 (1970)); see also United States v. Sambro, 454 F.2d 918, 922 (D.C.Cir.1971) (interpreting the statement in Brady to imply that a guilty plea is voluntary if a defendant lacks awareness only of the collateral consequences of a guilty plea, stating "[w]e presume that the Supreme Court meant what it said when it used the word `direct'; by doing so, it excluded collateral consequences"). The language in Brady defining the voluntary nature of a defendant's plea certainly suggests that Padilla's holding was not the "sole reasonable interpretation of existing precedent." Chaidez, 655 F.3d at 692 (emphasis added); see also Lambrix, 520 U.S. at 538, 117 S.Ct. 1517.

Finally, Reyes Campos argues that, based on the procedural posture in Padilla, coupled with references in the Padilla opinion to the ruling's effect on collateral proceedings, we should conclude that Padilla did not announce a new rule. Specifically, Reyes Campos relies on the fact that Padilla challenged his conviction through a collateral postconviction process after his conviction was final for purposes of retroactivity. As Reyes Campos points out, "[j]ust as the Supreme Court found that the Kentucky courts erred in denying Mr. Padilla's claim, it would necessarily find that the District Court in the instant case erred in deciding Reyes Campos['] case on the same basis, if the instant case were to be appealed all the way to the Supreme Court" because "Reyes Campos would be in the exact same procedural posture as Mr. Padilla was before the Supreme Court."9

We acknowledge that Padilla came to the Court on collateral review, and the Court afforded Padilla relief, which could suggest that the Court did not intend Padilla to announce a new rule. But neither Padilla nor the Commonwealth of Kentucky raised the issue of retroactivity in their briefs. See generally Brief for Respondent, Padilla v. Kentucky, ___ U.S. ___, 130 S.Ct. 1473, 176 L.Ed.2d 284 (2010) (No. 08-651), 2009 WL 2473880; Brief for Petitioner, Padilla v. Kentucky, ___ U.S. ___, 130 S.Ct. 1473, 176 L.Ed.2d 284 (2010) (No. 08-651), 2009 WL 1497552. Because the issue of retroactivity was not raised, we decline to speculate as to the Court's intention on that issue simply based on the procedural posture of the case. See State v. Osborne, 715 N.W.2d 436, 447 n. 8 (Minn.2006) (declining to "speculate" how the United States Supreme Court would decide the question of whether Blakely errors were structural errors); State v. Richter, 270 Minn. 307, 310, 133 N.W.2d 537, 539 (1965) (declining to speculate on the question of whether Mapp v. Ohio should be applied retroactively and deferring resolution of the question to the Supreme Court).

We recognize that in Teague, a case that came to the Court on collateral review, the Court concluded that determining "`whether a decision [announcing a new rule should] be given prospective or retroactive effect'" is a question that "`should be faced at the time of [that] decision,'" and is an issue "properly treated as a threshold question." 489 U.S. at 300, 109 S.Ct. 1060 (alterations in original) (quoting Paul J. Mishkin, Forward: the High Court, the Great Writ, and the Due Process of Time and Law, 79 Harv. L. Rev. 56, 64 (1965)). In so concluding, the Court expressed dissatisfaction with its earlier retroactivity jurisprudence, which did not always consider retroactivity as a threshold matter, in part because its analysis prior to Teague "led to unfortunate disparity in the treatment of similarly situated defendants on collateral review." Id. at 305, 109 S.Ct. 1060.

But the Court in later cases has backed away from its language in Teague that retroactivity is a "threshold question" to be decided at the time a new rule is announced. In Collins v. Youngblood, the Court held that "[a]lthough the Teague rule is grounded in important considerations of federal-state relations, we think it is not `jurisdictional' in the sense that this Court, despite a limited grant of certiorari, must raise and decide the issue sua sponte." 497 U.S. 37, 41, 110 S.Ct. 2715, 111 L.Ed.2d 30 (1990). Because the State had not relied on Teague in Collins, the Court addressed the petitioner's collateral claims on the merits. Id.; see also Goeke v. Branch, 514 U.S. 115, 117, 115 S.Ct. 1275, 131 L.Ed.2d 152 (1995) (explaining that "application of Teague is a threshold question in a federal habeas case," and that while "a court need not entertain the defense if the State has not raised it, a court must apply it if it was raised by the State" (citations omitted)).

The failure of the Commonwealth of Kentucky to raise the issue of retroactivity in Padilla constitutes the type of waiver contemplated by Collins. The Court has consistently stated that courts are free to raise the issue of retroactivity. See Schiro v. Farley, 510 U.S. 222, 229, 114 S.Ct. 783, 127 L.Ed.2d 47 (1994) (explaining that the Court "undoubtedly ha[s] the discretion" to raise and decide the Teague question); Curtis v. Duval, 124 F.3d 1, 5 (1st Cir. 1997) (explaining that the court may "raise the Teague issue on its own initiative if it believes that doing so will further the ends of justice"). But, in the face of a State's waiver, the Court has never explicitly endorsed the retroactivity-by-silence test that Reyes Campos advocates. Indeed, because the Court has evinced a willingness to raise the issue of retroactivity on its own, or note that it is declining to decide the issue as a result of the State's waiver, the Court's silence on retroactivity provides at least as much evidence that the Court did not intend to make a determination regarding the retroactivity of Padilla, as that the Court presumed Padilla would apply retroactively.

The fact that Padilla brought a state postconviction petition, instead of a federal habeas petition, also reinforces our conclusion that we should not rely on the procedural posture of Padilla to divine the Court's intention on retroactivity. The Teague analysis at its heart is meant to "ensure that state convictions comply with the federal law in existence at the time the conviction became final, and not to provide a mechanism for the continuing reexamination of final judgments based upon later emerging legal doctrine." Sawyer, 497 U.S. at 234, 110 S.Ct. 2822; see also Houston, 702 N.W.2d at 271 (explaining that "[t]he principle of finality is key" in our retroactivity determinations). In keeping with this general purpose, the Court has clearly determined that states are free to "provide broader relief in their own post-conviction proceedings than required by [Teague]." Danforth v. Minnesota, 552 U.S. 264, 277, 128 S.Ct. 1029, 169 L.Ed.2d 859 (2008). In Danforth, the Court explained that the rule established in Teague "was tailored to the unique context of federal habeas and therefore had no bearing on whether States could provide broader relief in their own postconviction proceedings than required by that opinion." Id. Because "finality of state convictions is a state interest, not a federal one," the Court determined that "[i]t is a matter that States should be free to evaluate, and weigh the importance of, when prisoners held in state custody are seeking a remedy for a violation of federal rights by their lower courts." Id. at 280, 128 S.Ct. 1029.

Given that states are free to extend greater retroactive effect to new rules of constitutional criminal procedure than the Court gives on federal habeas review, the Court's failure to discuss retroactivity in Padilla, a state postconviction proceeding, arguably has no effect on the Supreme Court's ability to later determine that Padilla announced a new rule. Kentucky's waiver of the retroactivity issue in Padilla may suggest instead that the Commonwealth was willing to forego determination of whether Padilla announced a new rule, and apply the rule announced to Padilla's postconviction petition in any case. Even if the Supreme Court later determines that Padilla announced a new rule that cannot be applied retroactively to federal habeas petitioners, Kentucky will remain free to give greater retroactive effect to Padilla and apply it retroactively to its own defendants on collateral review. Moreover, in the context of state postconviction proceedings, Teague's policy that similarly-situated defendants should be treated alike has less force. Indeed, states under Danforth are allowed to provide more retroactive relief in collateral proceedings, so defendants in different states may receive different access to the benefits of a newly-announced rule of constitutional criminal procedure, at least when state retroactivity rules exceed the scope of retroactivity provided by Teague.

For all of these reasons we conclude that Padilla announced a new rule of criminal procedure. Because we determine that Padilla announced a new rule of constitutional criminal procedure, it can only be applied to Reyes Campos' conviction on collateral review if Padilla's rule falls within one of the two narrow exceptions to the general retroactivity principles in Teague.

2.

We will only apply new rules retroactively in collateral proceedings if the rule announced is substantive or the rule is a "`watershed rul[e] of criminal procedure' implicating the fundamental fairness and accuracy of the criminal proceeding." Saffle v. Parks, 494 U.S. 484, 495, 110 S.Ct. 1257, 108 L.Ed.2d 415 (1990) (quoting Teague, 489 U.S. at 311, 109 S.Ct. 1060). It is clear that the rule announced in Padilla was procedural, not substantive. See Schriro v. Summerlin, 542 U.S. 348, 353, 124 S.Ct. 2519, 159 L.Ed.2d 442 (2004) (explaining that "rules that regulate only the manner of determining the defendant's culpability are procedural"). Therefore, the only exception that could provide Reyes Campos the relief he seeks is if Padilla announced a watershed rule.

The Court has repeatedly emphasized that the watershed "exception is `extremely narrow,'" and since its decision in Teague has "rejected every claim that a new rule satisfied the requirements for watershed status." Whorton, 549 U.S. at 417-18, 127 S.Ct. 1173 (quoting Schriro, 542 U.S. at 352, 124 S.Ct. 2519). Indeed, the Court has indicated that "it is unlikely that any" watershed rules have "yet to emerge." Schriro, 542 U.S. at 352, 124 S.Ct. 2519 (quoting Tyler v. Cain, 533 U.S. 656, 667 n. 7, 121 S.Ct. 2478, 150 L.Ed.2d 632 (2001)).10 A new rule must both be "necessary to prevent an impermissibly large risk of an inaccurate conviction" and "alter our understanding of the bedrock procedural elements essential to the fairness of a proceeding," in order to qualify as a watershed rule under the Supreme Court's jurisprudence. Whorton, 549 U.S. at 418, 127 S.Ct. 1173. To come within the watershed exception, the rule must institute procedures "implicit in the concept of ordered liberty," Graham v. Collins, 506 U.S. 461, 478, 113 S.Ct. 892, 122 L.Ed.2d 260 (1993) (citations omitted) (internal quotation marks omitted), and "it is not enough that a new rule `is aimed at improving the accuracy of trial,' or even that it promotes `[t]he objectives of fairness and accuracy.'" United States v. Mandanici, 205 F.3d 519, 528 (2d Cir.2000) (quoting Sawyer, 497 U.S. at 242, 110 S.Ct. 2822; Saffle, 494 U.S. at 495, 110 S.Ct. 1257). The only case that has ever satisfied this high threshold is Gideon v. Wainwright, in which the Court "held that counsel must be appointed for any indigent defendant charged with a felony." Whorton, 549 U.S. at 419, 127 S.Ct. 1173 (citing Gideon v. Wainwright, 372 U.S. 335, 83 S.Ct. 792, 9 L.Ed.2d 799 (1963)).

Given the long line of precedent rejecting important new rules as "watershed rulings," Padilla's new interpretation of the right to effective assistance of counsel does not qualify as a rule that goes to the heart of a fair proceeding. See, e.g., Schriro, 542 U.S. at 356-57, 124 S.Ct. 2519 (rejecting the contention that Ring v. Arizona, 536 U.S. 584, 122 S.Ct. 2428, 153 L.Ed.2d 556 (2002), which held that a sentencing judge, sitting without a jury, may not find an aggravating circumstance necessary for imposition of the death penalty, announced a watershed rule of criminal procedure); Beard, 542 U.S. at 420, 124 S.Ct. 2504 (declining to find that Mills v. Maryland, 486 U.S. 367, 108 S.Ct. 1860, 100 L.Ed.2d 384 (1988), which announced a new rule invalidating capital sentencing schemes requiring juries to disregard mitigating factors not found unanimously, constituted a watershed ruling); Houston, 702 N.W.2d at 273 (determining that Blakely v. Washington, 542 U.S. 296, 124 S.Ct. 2531, 159 L.Ed.2d 403 (2004), had not announced a watershed rule because it did not "impact the accuracy of an underlying determination of guilt or innocence," but instead only "modifie[d] the manner in which certain factors — those factors justifying upward durational departures ... must be treated"). Requiring counsel to inform his noncitizen client of the immigration consequences of a guilty plea does not decrease the risk of an inaccurate conviction. Padilla is only implicated "in cases where the defendant admits guilt and pleads guilty." Chang Hong, 671 F.3d at 1158. In such cases, "because the defendant's guilt is established through his own admission ... Padilla is simply not germane to concerns about risks of inaccurate convictions or fundamental procedural fairness." Id. Moreover, Padilla's holding, unlike the expansive rule in Gideon establishing a right to counsel in all felony cases, affects only a small subset of defendants, indicating that the rule does not have a fundamental and profound impact on criminal proceedings generally. See Mandanici, 205 F.3d at 528 (explaining that a watershed rule must institute "a `sweeping' change that applies to a large swathe of cases rather than a `narrow right' that applies only to a `limited class' of cases" (quoting O'Dell, 521 U.S. at 167, 117 S.Ct. 1969)); see also Ellis v. United States, 806 F.Supp.2d 538, 549 (E.D.N.Y.2011) (concluding that the rule announced in Padilla was not a watershed rule because "the rule has nothing to do with the accuracy of a defendant's conviction," applied "a relatively narrow holding," and "only applies to a limited class of defendants — noncitizen defendants who face charges that carry with them immigration consequences").

Because Padilla is a new rule of constitutional criminal procedure, but is not a watershed rule, we hold that Reyes Campos may not avail himself of the retroactive application of Padilla. In addition, because Minnesota law governing the standard for effective assistance of counsel at the time Reyes Campos' conviction became final did not require counsel to inform a defendant of the immigration consequences of pleading guilty, we hold that Reyes Campos did not receive ineffective assistance of counsel.

II.

Finally, we turn to Reyes Campos' contention that even if Padilla is not retroactively applicable to his guilty plea, he is entitled to relief on the additional basis that he did not receive the immigration advisory from the district court at his plea hearing. See Minn. R.Crim. P. 15.01, subd. 1(6)(l). Reyes Campos further argues that because Rule 15.01, subd. 1(6)(l) did not become effective until January 1, 1999, a year after our ruling in Alanis v. State, 583 N.W.2d 573 (Minn.1998), abrogated in part by Padilla v. Kentucky, 130 S.Ct. 1473, the rationale from Alanis should not apply where the immigration advisory required by the rules was not given to the defendant.11

The court of appeals declined to reach the issue of whether the failure to receive the Rule 15.01 immigration advisory provided a basis for Reyes Campos to withdraw his guilty plea, concluding that the issue was waived in part based on its conclusion that Reyes Campos had not raised the issue on appeal. See Reyes Campos, 798 N.W.2d at 570 n. 2 (explaining that because Reyes Campos had only raised the issue in his motion to reconsider, the district court had never addressed the issue, and Reyes Campos had not raised the Rule 15 violation as an issue on appeal, the Rule 15 issue was waived and would not be considered by the court). The court of appeals' conclusion that Reyes Campos failed to raise the issue on appeal was erroneous. The record reflects that Reyes Campos did raise the Rule 15 violation in his brief to the Court of Appeals, and the State never contended that the issue was waived.

But the court of appeals was correct in concluding that Reyes Campos raised the Rule 15 issue for the first time at the district court in his motion to reconsider. The State, however, is not contending that Reyes Campos waived the Rule 15 issue because he raised it for the first time in a motion to reconsider. To the contrary, the State argues to our court that "[t]he Minnesota Court of Appeals should have invalidated Respondent's guilty plea on [the] basis" that "Respondent did not receive the Rule 15.01, subd. 1(6)(l) warning prior to pleading guilty." Based on the unique facts of this case, where the State apparently concedes error and is not arguing that the error was waived, we remand the question of whether Reyes Campos is entitled to withdraw his plea due to lack of compliance with Rule 15.01, subd. 1(6)(l).

Reversed and remanded.

Dissenting, PAGE and ANDERSON, PAUL H., JJ.

PAGE, Justice (dissenting).

I respectfully dissent. Under our court's retroactivity analysis, the Supreme Court's decision in Padilla v. Kentucky, ___ U.S. ___, 130 S.Ct. 1473, 176 L.Ed.2d 284 (2010), did not announce a new rule of constitutional criminal procedure. Therefore, I would apply Padilla's holding to Reyes Campos' conviction and allow him to withdraw his plea. Alternatively, Reyes Campos is entitled to withdraw his plea because the district court failed to advise Reyes Campos of the immigration consequences of his plea as required by Rule 15 of our criminal procedure rules. Finally, Reyes Campos' trial counsel failed to both advise him of the immigration consequences of his plea and to object when the district court did not provide the advisory required by Rule 15. Counsel's failures resulted in Reyes Campos receiving ineffective assistance of counsel. Whether viewed individually or collectively, counsel's ineffective assistance and the district court's failure to comply with Rule 15 constituted a manifest injustice entitling Reyes Campos to withdraw his plea.

I.

A Supreme Court "holding constitutes a `new rule' within the meaning of Teague [v. Lane, 489 U.S. 288, 109 S.Ct. 1060, 103 L.Ed.2d 334 (1989)], if it `breaks new ground,' `imposes a new obligation on the States or the Federal Government,' or was not `dictated by precedent existing at the time the defendant's conviction became final.'" Graham v. Collins, 506 U.S. 461, 467, 113 S.Ct. 892, 122 L.Ed.2d 260 (1993) (quoting Teague, 489 U.S. at 301, 109 S.Ct. 1060); see also State v. Houston, 702 N.W.2d 268, 270 (Minn.2005) ("Under Teague, we first ask whether the rule of federal constitutional criminal procedure is new, or whether it is merely a predictable extension of a pre-existing doctrine."). Teague's "antiretroactivity rule" acts only to deny defendants "relief that is contingent upon a rule of law not clearly established at the time the state conviction became final." Williams v. Taylor, 529 U.S. 362, 380, 120 S.Ct. 1495, 146 L.Ed.2d 389 (2000). I disagree with our court that Padilla broke new ground and was not dictated by precedent. Applying the reasoning of the Third Circuit, I conclude that Padilla's holding did not break new ground but was merely a predictable extension of precedent existing at the time Reyes Campos' conviction became final. See United States v. Orocio, 645 F.3d 630 (3d Cir.2011); see also United States v. Dass, Crim. No. 05-140(3), 2011 WL 2746181, at *2-4 (D.Minn. July 14, 2011) (concluding that Padilla applied the old rule governing ineffective assistance of counsel announced in Strickland v. Washington, 466 U.S. 668, 104 S.Ct. 2052, 80 L.Ed.2d 674 (1984), and its progeny and should apply retroactively to defendants on collateral review); Marroquin v. United States, No. M-10-156, 2011 WL 488985, at *2 (S.D.Tex. Feb. 4, 2011) (same); Commonwealth v. Clarke, 460 Mass. 30, 949 N.E.2d 892 (2011) (same).

In Strickland, the Supreme Court identified "certain basic duties" imposed upon counsel in the representation of criminal defendants. 466 U.S. at 688, 104 S.Ct. 2052. In articulating the standard of attorney representation that adequately vindicates a defendant's Sixth Amendment right to counsel, the Court set forth what is now a well-established test for ineffective assistance of counsel claims. To prove ineffective assistance of counsel, the defendant must first show "that counsel's performance was deficient.... Second, the defendant must show that the deficient performance prejudiced the defense." Id. at 687, 104 S.Ct. 2052.

Strickland further clarified that under the first prong of the test for ineffective assistance of counsel, counsel's performance was deficient if "counsel's representation fell below an objective standard of reasonableness." Id. at 688, 104 S.Ct. 2052. Counsel has an "overarching duty to advocate the defendant's cause and the more particular duties to consult with the defendant on important decisions and to keep the defendant informed of important developments in the course of the prosecution," but the Court expressly cautioned that "[m]ore specific guidelines are not appropriate." Id. (emphasis added). Because "[t]he Sixth Amendment refers simply to `counsel' not specifying particular requirements of effective assistance," the Court determined that constitutionally effective assistance of counsel instead relies "on the legal profession's maintenance of standards sufficient to justify the law's presumption that counsel will fulfill the role in the adversary process that the Amendment envisions." Id. The Court went on to emphasize that:

Id. at 688-89, 104 S.Ct. 2052. Therefore, under Strickland "[t]he proper measure of attorney performance remains simply reasonableness under prevailing professional norms." Id. at 688, 104 S.Ct. 2052.

The Court in Padilla undertook precisely the analysis dictated by Strickland in determining whether Padilla had received ineffective assistance of counsel. In analyzing whether representation by Padilla's counsel "fell below an objective standard of reasonableness," the Court reiterated that the Strickland inquiry is "linked to the practice and expectations of the legal community: `The proper measure of attorney performance remains simply reasonableness under prevailing professional norms.'" Padilla, 130 S.Ct. at 1482 (quoting Strickland, 466 U.S. at 688, 104 S.Ct. 2052). The Court looked to numerous authorities, including the American Bar Association, criminal defense organizations, and state bar associations, which "universally require defense attorneys to advise as to the risk of deportation consequences for non-citizen clients," to conclude that "[t]he weight of prevailing professional norms supports the view that counsel must advise her client regarding the risk of deportation." Id. (citations omitted); see also Orocio, 645 F.3d at 638 ("[T]he [Padilla] Court straightforwardly applied the Strickland rule — and the norms of the legal profession that insist upon adequate warning to criminal defendants of immigration consequences — to the facts of Jose Padilla's case."). Therefore, the Court held that "counsel must inform her client whether his plea carries a risk of deportation." Padilla, 130 S.Ct. at 1486. Padilla did not announce a new rule of criminal procedure but "simply clarified that a violation of these norms amounts to deficient performance under Strickland." Chaidez v. United States, 655 F.3d 684, 694 (7th Cir.2011) (Williams, J., dissenting), cert. granted, ___ U.S. ___, 132 S.Ct. 2101, ___ L.Ed.2d ___ (2012). Padilla's holding "recogniz[es] that a plea agreement's immigration consequences constitute the sort of information an alien defendant needs in making `important decisions' affecting `the outcome of the plea process,' and thereby come within the ambit of the `more particular duties to consult with the defendant' required of effective counsel." Orocio, 645 F.3d at 638 (quoting Strickland, 466 U.S. at 688, 104 S.Ct. 2052).

My conclusion that Padilla did not announce a new rule, but was dictated by Strickland, is further supported by the nature of the Strickland rule itself. Whether a rule is new for purposes of a Teague analysis "depends in large part on the nature of the rule." Wright v. West, 505 U.S. 277, 308, 112 S.Ct. 2482, 120 L.Ed.2d 225 (1992) (Kennedy, J., concurring). If a rule "is one which of necessity requires a case-by-case examination of the evidence, then [courts] can tolerate a number of specific applications without saying that those applications themselves create a new rule." Id. When, as with Strickland, "the beginning point is a rule of ... general application, a rule designed for the specific purpose of evaluating a myriad of factual contexts, it will be the infrequent case that yields a result so novel that it forges a new rule, one not dictated by precedent." Id. at 309, 112 S.Ct. 2482. In Williams v. Taylor, for example, a petitioner sought federal habeas relief contending that he was denied the effective assistance of counsel when his lawyers "failed to investigate and to present substantial mitigating evidence to the sentencing jury." 529 U.S. at 390, 120 S.Ct. 1495. In determining whether Williams sought the application of "a rule of law that was clearly established at the time his state-court conviction became final,"12 the Court concluded "[t]hat question is easily answered because the merits of his claim are squarely governed by our holding in Strickland v. Washington." Williams, 529 U.S. at 390, 120 S.Ct. 1495. The Court explained that Strickland "`of necessity requires a case-by-case examination of the evidence,'" and dictated that the lower court "apply the Strickland test at the time that court entertained Williams' ineffective-assistance claim." Id. at 391, 120 S.Ct. 1495 (quoting Wright, 505 U.S. at 308, 112 S.Ct. 2482 (Kennedy, J., concurring)). The Court further emphasized that "it can hardly be said that recognizing the right to effective counsel `breaks new ground or imposes a new obligation on the States,'" and that "the Strickland test provides sufficient guidance for resolving virtually all ineffective-assistance-of-counsel claims." Id. at 391, 120 S.Ct. 1495 (quoting Teague, 489 U.S. at 301, 109 S.Ct. 1060); see also Allen v. Massie, 236 F.3d 1243, 1245 (10th Cir.2001) ("There is simply nothing in the Supreme Court's decision in Williams that even remotely resembles a new rule of constitutional law. Instead, the Williams Court merely reaffirmed that all claims of ineffective assistance of counsel should be resolved by reference to the well-established rubric set forth in Strickland." (emphasis added)).

Just as Strickland dictated the Court's analysis of ineffective assistance of counsel in Williams, so too did Strickland dictate the Court's decision in Padilla. That Padilla analyzed the effective assistance of counsel under a new set of facts does not indicate that Padilla announced a new rule. Rather, Padilla simply applied Strickland to a new set of facts in light of the increasingly prominent role immigration consequences play in the criminal law coupled with a changing understanding of professional norms governing counsel's obligations with respect to those consequences. Since Strickland was decided, the Court has consistently applied Strickland's holding to new circumstances and particular sets of facts. See, e.g., Lafler v. Cooper, ___ U.S. ___, 132 S.Ct. 1376, 182 L.Ed.2d 398 (2012) (holding that the Sixth Amendment and the accompanying Strickland test apply to claims that a defendant rejected a plea based on attorney error); Rompilla v. Beard, 545 U.S. 374, 125 S.Ct. 2456, 162 L.Ed.2d 360 (2005) (applying Strickland to counsel's failure to investigate a file containing evidence the State intended to use in aggravating the defendant's sentence); Wiggins v. Smith, 539 U.S. 510, 123 S.Ct. 2527, 156 L.Ed.2d 471 (2003) (applying Strickland to counsel's failure to investigate the defendant's background); Roe v. Flores-Ortega, 528 U.S. 470, 120 S.Ct. 1029, 145 L.Ed.2d 985 (2000) (resolving a circuit split and applying Strickland to hold that criminal defense attorneys have a constitutional duty to consult and advise defendants of their appellate rights); Hill v. Lockhart, 474 U.S. 52, 58, 106 S.Ct. 366, 88 L.Ed.2d 203 (1985) (holding that the "two-part Strickland v. Washington test applies to challenges to guilty pleas based on ineffective assistance of counsel"). These various applications of Strickland have almost uniformly been found to constitute old rules under Teague. See Newland v. Hall, 527 F.3d 1162, 1197 (11th Cir.2008) ("Williams, Wiggins, and Rompilla are not new law under Teague [because] Strickland set forth the paradigmatic example of a rule of general application; it establishes a broad and flexible standard for the review of an attorney's performance in a variety of factual circumstances."); Tanner v. McDaniel, 493 F.3d 1135, 1143-44 (9th Cir.2007) ("Each time that a court delineates what `reasonably effective assistance' requires of defense attorneys with respect to a particular aspect of client representation, it can hardly be thought to have created a new principle of constitutional law." (citation omitted)); Lewis v. Johnson, 359 F.3d 646, 655 (3d Cir.2004) (concluding that Flores-Ortega did not announce a new rule and explaining that the State's "emphasis on the particular duty identified by the Flores-Ortega Court — counsel's constitutional obligation to consult with her client regarding appeal options — as a basis for classifying this rule as `new' for Teague purposes is misplaced" because Strickland is a general rule that requires a case-by-case examination of the evidence). Padilla's holding should not be treated any differently.

Our court acknowledges that Padilla applied Strickland, but determines that Padilla announced a new rule "`not because of what it applies — Strickland — but because of where it applies — collateral immigration consequences of a plea bargain.'" Supra at 494 (quoting United States v. Chang Hong, 671 F.3d 1147, 1156 (10th Cir.2011)); see also Chaidez, 655 F.3d at 693 (concluding that Padilla announced a new rule in part because it required criminal defense attorneys, for the first time, "to provide advice about matters not directly related to their client's criminal prosecution"). But as the Third Circuit explained, this analysis "is an incomplete approach to the Strickland question." Orocio, 645 F.3d at 637. Rather, the question in Padilla, and the question here, remains simply, "whether counsel has been constitutionally adequate in advising a criminal defendant whether to accept a plea bargain." Orocio, 645 F.3d at 637-38; see also Chaidez, 655 F.3d at 696 (Williams, J., dissenting) ("The analytical mechanism by which the Court applied Strickland does not detract from the fact that Strickland is the general test governing ineffective assistance claims, and that the Padilla Court did no more than recognize that removal is the type of consequence that a defendant needs to be informed of when making the decision of whether to plea.").

Our court relies heavily on the state of the law in state and federal courts before Padilla — holding almost unanimously that failure to advise a client of the deportation consequences of a guilty plea did not constitute ineffective assistance of counsel — as evidence that the outcome of Padilla "`was susceptible to debate among reasonable minds,'" and therefore could not have been dictated by precedent. Supra at 490 (quoting Butler, 494 U.S. at 415, 110 S.Ct. 1212). While it is true that a rule is not an old rule merely because it is "logically an extension of some precedent, as that is true of virtually all recently announced rules ... the test is whether `reasonable jurists hearing petitioner's claim at the time his conviction became final would have felt compelled by existing precedent to rule in his favor.'" Houston, 702 N.W.2d at 271 (quoting Graham, 506 U.S. at 467, 113 S.Ct. 892) (internal quotation marks omitted). But the Supreme Court has cautioned that "[e]ven though we have characterized the new rule inquiry as whether `reasonable jurists' could disagree as to whether a result is dictated by precedent, the standard for determining when a case establishes a new rule is `objective,' and the mere existence of conflicting authority does not necessarily mean a rule is new." Wright, 505 U.S. at 304, 112 S.Ct. 2482 (O'Connor, J., concurring) (citations omitted). Moreover, the Court has explained that "[t]he often repeated language that Teague endorses `reasonable, good-faith interpretations' by state courts is an explanation of policy, not a statement of law.'" Williams, 529 U.S. at 383, 120 S.Ct. 1495. Courts engaged in a Teague analysis are therefore directed to make an independent examination of the relevant precedent to determine whether the rule in question was dictated by it.

An independent examination of Strickland and the cases that followed it reveals that the nearly uniform holdings of state and federal courts before Padilla were based on a distinction between direct and collateral consequences of a guilty plea that was untenable in the immigration context. Categorically removing advice about immigration consequences from the Sixth Amendment was therefore not a reasonable interpretation of Supreme Court precedent.

In Padilla, the Supreme Court explicitly recognized that it has "never applied a distinction between direct and collateral consequences to define the scope of constitutionally `reasonable professional assistance' required under Strickland." 130 S.Ct. at 1481. The Padilla Court explained that "deportation is a particularly severe `penalty'" and that "recent changes in our immigration law have made removal nearly an automatic result for a broad class of noncitizen offenders" and "an integral part — indeed, sometimes the most important part — of the penalty that may be imposed on noncitizen defendants who plead guilty to specified crimes." Id. at 1480-81 (quoting Fong Yue Ting v. United States, 149 U.S. 698, 740, 13 S.Ct. 1016, 37 L.Ed. 905 (1893)). The Court determined that because of deportation's "close connection to the criminal process [it is] uniquely difficult to classify as either a direct or a collateral consequence" and that "[t]he collateral versus direct distinction is thus ill-suited to evaluating a Strickland claim concerning the specific risk of deportation." Id. at 1481-82. Therefore, the Court held that "advice regarding deportation is not categorically removed from the ambit of the Sixth Amendment right to counsel," and that Strickland applied to Padilla's claim. Id.

Padilla explicitly concluded that lower courts — in reaching the conclusion that failure to warn a client of the deportation consequences of a guilty plea did not constitute ineffective assistance of counsel — had erroneously applied an "ill-suited" distinction between direct and collateral consequences in summarily rejecting ineffective assistance of counsel claims. If lower courts had "not dwelled in the direct-versus-collateral distinction," that has never been endorsed by the Supreme Court, "they would have necessarily applied Strickland to the ineffective assistance of counsel claims that were before them and would have considered the same professional legal standards the Supreme Court examined in reaching its conclusion; instead, the lower courts dismissed the claims without the analysis dictated by Strickland." Marroquin, 2011 WL 488985, at *6. Therefore, I would conclude that Padilla's result was dictated by Strickland, and consequently did not announce a new rule of constitutional criminal procedure.

Because I conclude that Padilla announced an old rule, I would apply the rule retroactively to Reyes Campos' collateral challenge to his conviction and go on to consider whether Reyes Campos received ineffective assistance of counsel under Strickland and Padilla. The standard of professional reasonableness from Padilla requires that, "when the deportation consequence [of a guilty plea] is truly clear," counsel "give correct advice." 130 S.Ct. at 1483. But recognizing the complexities of immigration law, the Court clarified the scope of this duty, explaining that "[w]hen the law is not succinct and straightforward," rendering "the deportation consequences of a particular plea ... unclear or uncertain" a criminal defense attorney need only "advise a noncitizen client that pending criminal charges may carry a risk of adverse immigration consequences." Id. The Court explicitly rejected a requirement that the defendant must show he was affirmatively misled by his attorney about deportation consequences in order to prove objective unreasonableness. Id. at 1484 (explaining that "there is no relevant difference between an act of commission and an act of omission," and declining to incentivize counsel "to remain silent on matters of great importance, even when the answers are readily available" (citation omitted) (internal quotation marks omitted)).

Here, the "deportation consequences" of Reyes Campos' guilty plea were "sufficiently clear" to invoke his counsel's duty to "give correct advice." See Padilla, 130 S.Ct. at 1483. That duty was also invoked by Minn. R.Crim. P. 15.01, subd. 1(6)(l). Reyes Campos is correct that "even a cursory reading of the immigration statutes, a brief consultation with an immigration attorney, or a review of information provided at multiple Continuing Legal Education seminars for defense counsel since the late 1990s would have made [the deportation] consequences clear" in his case. The State does not argue otherwise. Like in Padilla, where "the terms of the relevant immigration statute [were] succinct, clear, and explicit in defining the removal consequence for Padilla's conviction," the relevant immigration statutes in Reyes Campos' case also clearly indicate the deportation consequences of his plea. See Padilla, 130 S.Ct. at 1483. The statute applicable to Padilla's conviction provided that "[a]ny alien who at any time after admission has been convicted of a violation of ... any law or regulation ... relating to a controlled substance ... is deportable." Id. (quoting 8 U.S.C. § 1227(a)(2)(B)(i) (2006)). Similarly, the statute applicable to Reyes Campos provides that "[a]ny alien who is convicted of an aggravated felony at any time after admission is deportable." 8 U.S.C. § 1227(a)(2)(A)(iii) (2006). Aggravated felonies are clearly defined in the INA and include the conduct to which Reyes Campos pleaded guilty. Yet, Reyes Campos never received any information about the immigration consequences of his plea from his counsel. Thus, his counsel's representation fell below an objective standard of reasonableness under Strickland.

Reyes Campos has also demonstrated that he was prejudiced by his counsel's failure to inform Reyes Campos that his guilty plea would subject him to deportation. See Strickland, 466 U.S. at 687, 104 S.Ct. 2052. To establish prejudice in the guilty plea context, the defendant must demonstrate "a reasonable probability that, but for counsel's errors, he would not have pleaded guilty and would have insisted on going to trial." Hill, 474 U.S. at 59, 106 S.Ct. 366; see also State v. Ecker, 524 N.W.2d 712, 718 (Minn.1994). The Supreme Court has further clarified that the prejudice question is "not whether [the defendant] was sure beyond a reasonable doubt that he would still be convicted," but whether there was a "reasonable probability that he would not have entered his plea but for his counsel's deficiency." Premo v. Moore, ___ U.S. ___, 131 S.Ct. 733, 744, 178 L.Ed.2d 649 (2011). As Padilla recognized, information about the immigration consequences of a guilty plea can substantially change a defendant's calculus about whether to plead guilty because "`[p]reserving the client's right to remain in the United States may be more important to the client than any potential jail sentence.'" 130 S.Ct. at 1483 (alteration in original) (quoting INS v. St. Cyr, 533 U.S. 289, 323, 121 S.Ct. 2271, 150 L.Ed.2d 347 (2001)).

Reyes Campos argues that, "upon learning that a plea would have resulted in his mandatory and permanent deportation and separation from his family, [he] would have either sought a plea agreement that did not result in his mandatory deportation, or would have proceeded to trial." He also submitted an affidavit to the district court to that effect. Reyes Campos pled guilty to a charge of simple robbery and as a condition of his probation was required to serve 365 days in the Hennepin County workhouse. Aggravated felonies which subject a defendant to deportation, by definition under the INA, require that a defendant be convicted of a crime "for which the term of imprisonment [is] at least one year." See 8 U.S.C. § 1101(a)(43)(F), (G) (2006). Therefore, if Reyes Campos' time in the workhouse had been reduced by one day, to 364 days, he would not have been subject to automatic deportation. Certainly, Reyes Campos' decision "to reject the plea bargain would have been rational under the circumstances." Orocio, 645 F.3d at 645 (quoting Padilla, 130 S.Ct. at 1485); Denisyuk v. State, 422 Md. 462, 30 A.3d 914, 930 (2011) (concluding that prejudice was shown by "Petitioner's sworn statement that he would have opted to go to trial if he had known of the likelihood of deportation").

For all of these reasons, Padilla requires that Reyes Campos' be allowed to withdraw his guilty plea.

II.

Alternatively, Reyes Campos argues that he is entitled to relief because he did not receive the immigration advisory required by Minn. R.Crim. P. 15.01, subd. 1(6)(l),13 from the district court at his plea hearing and because he received ineffective assistance of counsel when his counsel failed to both advise him of the immigration consequences of his plea and to object when the district court did not provide the advisory required by Rule 15. Our court concludes that because the district court did not address the issue it must remand on "the question of whether Reyes Campos is entitled to withdraw his plea due to lack of compliance with Rule 15.01, subd. 1(6)(l)." Because there are no factual disputes and the questions presented are purely legal, we should address the merits of Reyes Campos' argument in the interests of justice and judicial economy. See Brookfield Trade Ctr., Inc. v. Cnty. of Ramsey, 609 N.W.2d 868, 873 n. 6 (Minn. 2000) (explaining that our court has the authority to consider issues not properly before it "in the interests of justice and judicial economy"); Minn. R. Civ.App. P. 103.04 (allowing appellate courts to review any order involving the merits or affecting judgment, or any other matter as the interests of justice may require). Because Reyes Campos received ineffective assistance of counsel under Minnesota law at the time his conviction was final, I would conclude that Reyes Campos may withdraw his guilty plea.

A court must allow a defendant to withdraw a guilty plea if "withdrawal is necessary to correct a manifest injustice." Minn. R.Crim. P. 15.05, subd. 1. A manifest injustice occurs when a guilty plea is invalid. State v. Theis, 742 N.W.2d 643, 650 (Minn.2007). "The longstanding test for determining the validity of a guilty plea is `whether the plea represents a voluntary and intelligent choice among the alternative courses of action open to the defendant.'" Hill v. Lockhart, 474 U.S. 52, 56, 106 S.Ct. 366, 88 L.Ed.2d 203 (1985) (quoting North Carolina v. Alford, 400 U.S. 25, 31, 91 S.Ct. 160, 27 L.Ed.2d 162 (1970)). The "intelligence requirement ensures that a defendant understands the charges against him, the rights he is waiving, and the consequences of his plea." State v. Raleigh, 778 N.W.2d 90, 96 (Minn.2010). A defendant's guilty plea is constitutionally invalid if the defendant received ineffective assistance of counsel, rendering his guilty plea not intelligent. Hill, 474 U.S. at 56, 106 S.Ct. 366; State v. Ecker, 524 N.W.2d 712, 718 (Minn.1994).

Two provisions of the Minnesota Rules of Criminal Procedure require that a defendant receive warnings regarding the possible immigration consequences of a guilty plea. Under Minn. R.Crim. P. 15.01, subd. 1, before a judge accepts a defendant's guilty plea, the defendant must be sworn and questioned on a variety of matters by the judge with the assistance of counsel. Specifically, the defendant must be asked if the defendant understands that if he "is not a citizen of the United States, a guilty plea may result in deportation, exclusion from admission to the United States, or denial of naturalization as a United States citizen." Minn. R.Crim. P. 15.01, subd. 1(6)(l). Additionally, our criminal procedure rules provide that a standard plea petition, to be signed by the defendant before pleading guilty, contain the language: "My attorney has told me and I understand that if I am not a citizen of the United States this plea of guilty may result in deportation, exclusion from admission to the United States of America or denial of citizenship." Minn. R.Crim. P. 15, Appx. A, 27.

There is no factual dispute in the record that would prevent our court from concluding, as a matter of law, that Reyes Campos received ineffective assistance of counsel when his attorney failed to ensure that Reyes Campos received the required immigration advisories. The record shows and the parties agree that Reyes Campos did not receive any information at the plea hearing regarding the effects of the plea on his immigration status. Moreover, at the plea hearing, the district court directed defense counsel to complete a plea petition with Reyes Campos. The plea petition that defense counsel was instructed to prepare, however, does not appear in the district court record, nor is there any indication of that petition's contents. There is also no indication in the plea hearing transcript or elsewhere in the record that a plea petition — containing the standard language, "My attorney has told me and I understand that if I am not a citizen of the United States this plea of guilty may result in deportation, exclusion from admission to the United States of America or denial of citizenship," Minn. R.Crim. P. 15, Appx. A, 27 — was ever prepared and executed. Counsel for both Reyes Campos and the State indicated at oral argument before our court that no plea petition was, in fact, prepared before Reyes Campos' guilty plea. Consistent with the Court's reasoning in Padilla, prevailing professional norms in Minnesota at the time Reyes Campos' conviction became final dictated that Reyes Campos' counsel provide his client with information about the clear deportation consequences of his guilty plea. The failure of Reyes Campos' attorney to ensure that Reyes Campos received the required immigration warnings fell below an objective standard of reasonableness. As explained above, failure to receive warnings regarding the immigration consequences of his guilty plea caused Reyes Campos prejudice because it would have been rational under the circumstances for Reyes Campos to have rejected the plea bargain. I therefore conclude that Reyes Campos received ineffective assistance of counsel. Moreover, the ineffectiveness of Reyes Campos' counsel was compounded by the district court's failure to provide the immigration advisories required under the rule. That Reyes Campos was never informed, by either the court or his counsel, of the immigration consequences of his guilty plea, in contravention of several provisions of our rules of criminal procedure, clearly renders Reyes Campos' guilty plea invalid and constitutes a manifest injustice allowing Reyes Campos to withdraw that plea.

Our court instead characterizes the question of the failure to give a Rule 15.01, subd. 1(6)(l), advisory as going generally to the invalidity of Reyes Campos' plea, and not to the more specific question of whether Reyes Campos received ineffective assistance of counsel in connection with his plea. The court bases this characterization on our decision in Alanis v. State, 583 N.W.2d 573 (Minn.1998), abrogated in part by Padilla v. Kentucky, 130 S.Ct. 1473, and its resulting determination that "under our precedent at the time of Reyes Campos' plea, his counsel was not ineffective."

In Alanis, we concluded that an attorney's failure to inform his client "that his guilty plea might subject him to deportation" did not constitute ineffective assistance of counsel because, "as a collateral consequence of the guilty plea, his attorney was under no obligation to advise him of the deportation possibility and, therefore, the failure to so inform him could not have fallen below an objective standard of reasonableness as required by Strickland." 583 N.W.2d at 579 (emphasis added). But Alanis was decided before the amendments to the Minnesota Rules of Criminal Procedure were adopted that obligate counsel to inform defendants of the immigration consequences of a guilty plea. See Kaiser v. State, 641 N.W.2d 900, 904 n. 4 (Minn.2002) (noting that the rules were amended to include the requirement that a defendant be asked whether he understands the possible deportation consequences of a guilty plea); Minn. R.Crim. P. 15.01 (1999) (amended Jan. 1, 1999). Therefore, under Minnesota law at the time Reyes Campos' conviction became final, Reyes Campos' attorney was under an obligation to advise Reyes Campos of the deportation consequences of his guilty plea, and counsel's failure to so inform Reyes Campos fell below an objective standard of reasonableness. Failure to receive warnings regarding the immigration consequences of his guilty plea caused Reyes Campos prejudice, and I therefore conclude that Reyes Campos received ineffective assistance of counsel and would allow Reyes Campos to withdraw his guilty plea.

ANDERSON, PAUL H., Justice (dissenting).
