In May 2002 I was charged with "furnishing liquor to a minor". My lawyer entered a deal with the prosecutor where I didn't have to make any admission of guilt and if I kept out of trouble for the next one year, then the case would be dismissed. But I attended a class on liquor laws and paid some minor fee for the class. After about a year (in late 2003) the case was dismissed. I haven't been into any trouble since then.
After that I have made at least 6-7 trips outside the country and have never had any issues getting back inside. Also never had any issues getting my H1B renewed.
I filed for my I485 during the 2007 fiasco (when the priority dates for every one became current temporarily). My I485 may be adjudicated soon (as the priority date is getting near). I have the following questions :-
(1) Would any one know if "furnishing liquor to a minor" considered a crime of moral turpitude ?
(2) Is there a chance that my green card can be denied because of this record ?
