Our client is a Lawful Permanent Resident since 2009 and was charged with burglary of a structure with intent to commit theft in 2012, thus making him inadmissible under 212(a)(2)(A)(i)(I) of the act as an alien committing a crime involving moral turpitude. It was argued that that burglary of a structure is not inherently a crime involving moral turpitude, and it was argued that the underlying offense of theft is also not a crime involving moral turpitude. The Miami Immigration Judge agreed that client’s crime of burglary of a structure with intent to commit theft is not a crime involving moral turpitude and proceedings were terminated, and Green Card returned.
Case Terminated, Client retains Green Card
