Hi,
A friend of mine was recently charged with domestic assault. He hired a criminal attorney who is working on making the self-defense case for him. The witness/complainant in his case wishes to drop the case, but it is apparently upto the state now. He would like to know what outcome will be acceptable to avoid deportation:
1. Dismissal of the case
2. Acquittal upon trial
3. Continuance to dismissal with counseling/anger management
4. Plea bargain charges down to Petty Misdemenor
5. Plea bargain charges down to Disorderly conduct
Outcome 1 and 2 cannot be any problems for sure...
Are any of the other options viable to not be deported/inadmissible/ineligible for citizenship?
He has been in US for 10.5 years and has been a LPR for 2.5 years. He has no priors (charges/arrests/convictions).
Thank you for helping.
