Defendant did not fully substantiate his claim that his counsel provided constitutionally deficient advice regarding the immigration consequences of defendant's guilty plea (see Padilla v Kentucky, 559 U.S. 356, 367-369 [2010]; People v McDonald, 1 N.Y.3d 109, 113-114 [2003]; People v Doumbia, 153 A.D.3d 1139, 1140 [1st Dept 2017]), and, as such, a hearing on that issue is required (see CPL 440.30[3][c]). As to the prejudice prong of his claim, which requires proof that he would not have pleaded guilty but for the incorrect advice, a hearing on that issue is also necessary (see People v Gaston, 163 A.D.3d 442, 444-445 [1st Dept 2018]). We have considered and rejected both parties' remaining arguments.
