Todd Spodek
Lead Attorney & Founder
Featured on Netflix's "Inventing Anna," Todd Spodek brings decades of high-stakes criminal defense experience. His aggressive approach has secured dismissals and acquittals in cases others deemed unwinnable.
You received a Notice to Appear (NTA) from Immigration and Customs Enforcement after your green card renewal application was flagged due to a misdemeanor conviction from several years ago. Your hearing before an immigration judge is scheduled in three weeks, and you're terrified that you'll be deported and separated from your U.S. citizen children.
Can a past misdemeanor conviction really lead to deportation even though I've been a lawful permanent resident for over a decade?
Under INA § 237(a)(2), certain criminal convictions — even misdemeanors — can render a lawful permanent resident deportable if they qualify as crimes involving moral turpitude or aggravated felonies under immigration law. However, several forms of relief may be available to you, including cancellation of removal under INA § 240A(a), which requires showing seven years of continuous residence and that you merit a favorable exercise of discretion. We would also evaluate whether your conviction qualifies for a categorical approach challenge under Descamps v. United States, which could remove it as a basis for deportation entirely. With your long ties to the community and U.S. citizen children, a strong case can be built to fight your removal proceedings.
