Yes, it was 1) 24-session of family violence prevention counselling and 2) no violent contact.
"No violent contact" sounds like a protection or restraining order. NEVER violate one of
those as there is no way to avoid a negative immigration consequence, not even a presidential pardon.
Good compliance and a record of no violations of conditions set by the court or probation department goes a long way in granting a favorable exercise of discretion in matters involving discretion.
Matter of Jung Tae SUH, 23 I&N Dec. 626 (BIA 2003) Decided July 1, 2003
(1) A presidential or gubernatorial pardon waives only the grounds of
removal specifically set forth in section 237(a)(2)(A)(v) of the
Immigration and Nationality Act, 8 U.S.C. § 1227(a)(2)(A)(v) (2000), and
no implicit waivers may be read into the statute.
(2) The respondent’s pardon did not waive his removability as an alien
convicted of a crime of domestic violence or child abuse under section
237(a)(2)(E)(i) of the Act, because that section is not specifically
included in section 237(a)(2)(A)(v).
Section 237(a)(2)(A)(v) of the Act specifies the effect of a
presidential or gubernatorial pardon on certain grounds of removability.
It states that “[c]lauses (i), (ii), (iii), and (iv)” of section
237(a)(2)(A) “shall not apply” where such a pardon has been granted. It
thereby provides for an automatic waiver of removability where a pardon
has been granted for (i) crimes of moral turpitude, (ii) multiple
criminal convictions, (iii) aggravated felonies, and (iv) certain high
speed flight convictions. There is no comparable provision regarding
pardons that would cover convictions for other offenses that render an
alien removable, such as acts of domestic violence or child abuse
pursuant to section 237(a)(2)(E)(i), under which the respondent was
charged. Other removable offenses, such as controlled substance
violations under section 237(a)(2)(B), certain firearm offenses under
section 237(a)(2)(C), and violations of protection orders under section
237(a)(2)(E)(ii), are similarly not covered by the pardon waiver of
section 237(a)(2)(A)(v) of the Act.
