State v. Ace

ZIMMER, J.

Aceves-Hernandez appeals his sentence following his written guilty plea for identity theft in violation of Iowa Code section 715A.8(2) (2005). Aceves-Hernandez contends that his written guilty plea was not voluntary and should be withdrawn because the district court failed to advise him of the immigration consequences of his guilty plea. Specifically, Aceves-Hernandez asserts that the language contained within the written plea of guilty and waiver of rights was inadequate because it only advised that he "may" be deported, and the district court should have advised that he would be deported. We review for corrections of errors at law. Iowa R. App. P. 6.4.

Aceves-Hernandez did not file a motion in arrest of judgment pursuant to Iowa Rule of Criminal Procedure 2.24(3)( a), and specifically waived in his written plea his right to challenge his guilty plea. Additionally, Aceves-Hernandez has not asserted any ineffective assistance of counsel claims. As such, his claim has not been preserved for appellate review. See State v. Barnes, 652 N.W.2d 466, 468 (Iowa 2002).

AFFIRMED.
