Hello Guys!
I am here back again with a particular and perhaps serious issue in which my brother is involved.
My 27 years old brother came here to the United States 3 years ago with his 9 years old son, he and his son obtained their green card thorough marriage.
1: First he received his conditional (2 years) green card.
2: Then he applied for the 10 years green card which he already received.
3: Problem: Two weeks after getting his 10 years old green card, he got into a incident with the law here in New Jersey which involves the following charges/felonies/offenses:
A: DWI On school property or within 10000 ft of school.
B: Reckless driving
C: Operating under the influence of liquor or drugs
D: Consent to take samples of breath, record.
Although this is not the first time he received traffic tickets, this is his first time getting a DWI and Reckless driving tickets. He already appeared in court today and the judge gave him until August 4 to find a lawyer which he already found.
The problem: Our family booked a flight to Lima, Peru for this Friday July 25 to be back August 12, both tickets him and his little son were kind of expensive and it will be difficult now to cancel or postpone them.
My brother's lawyer recommend him NOT to travel out of the county with those criminal charges until this situation is cleared but he didn't seem totally sure and recommend us to ask a immigration lawyer or somebody with experience.
How true is this? Can he be facing deportation or deny entry at the immigration customs? Nobody was injured and there were not property or material lost in the incident (only the card he was driving).
