People v. Gari, 199 Cal.App.4th 510 (4th Dist. Sept. 12, 2011) (California Penal Code 1016.5, which requires that alien defendant be admonished that a guilty or no-contest plea may affect immigration status, does not require the court to advise defendants that a plea to a crime committed prior to the date of naturalization may result in revocation of citizenship; defendants assertions that he pleaded guilty to the offenses charged, without knowing the legal effect of the plea on his citizenship status, were insufficient to support any similar form of nonstatutory relief based on equity and fairness).
