People v. Feliciano
Opinion of the Court
Ordered that the judgment is reversed, on the law, the plea of guilty is vacated, and the matter is remitted to the Supreme Court, Queens County, for further proceedings consistent herewith.
It is clear from the face of the record that the defendant’s plea of guilty was induced by a promise from the Supreme Court that could not be fulfilled (see People v Mills, 1 NY3d 269 [2003]). Thus, on the particular facts presented, vacatur of the plea is appropriate (see People v Selikoff, 35 NY2d 227 [1974], cert denied 419 US 1122 [1975]; People v McCready, 296 AD2d 423 [2002]). Adams, J.P., Ritter, Goldstein and Fisher, JJ., concur.
