• listing ineligibility for parole, loss of good time, and loss of rights of citizenship as collateral consequences of a guilty plea
• holding deportation to be a collateral consequence of a guilty plea, and listing loss of civil service employment, the right to vote and to travel freely abroad, the right to a driver’s license, and the right to possess firearms as other examples of potential collateral consequences
• “The possibility of being deported can be — and frequently is — the most important factor in a criminal defendant’s decision how to plead”
• "This case opens the window on the sometimes bizarre and topsy-turvy world of sentencing under the Guidelines."
• district court mistakenly imposed a sentence different from the one to which the parties had agreed and where the judge had intended to abide by the agreement
• amended Rule 35 does not repudiate authority of district court to correct illegal sentence
• defendant not entitled to § 5K2.12 departure because her motivation was money
