The
following links lead to charts that analyze the adverse immigration
consequences of criminal convictions in each jurisdiction.
Every chart lists the name of the offense, the relevant statute,
then the category of crimes that the offense may or may not
fall under (crimes of moral turpitude, aggravated felonies,
and others) and some charts even offer advice regarding possible
alternative pleas or defense strategies.
These
charts are not a complete analysis; they are intended to be
used for quick reference. Individual cases require the detailed
analysis that only competent counsel can provide.
