Can an illegal immigrant testify in a criminal court without potentially being deported?

Yes. Most illegals in the United States are not being deported. Usually criminal aliens are being deported, but not people simply testifying. Harvey Mechanic, Attorney at Law [email protected] Authorized to handle Immigration matters throughout the United States

I agree. It is unlikely that she will be taken into custody. The State Courts are separate from the Federal Courts. Immigration is Federal law. In addition, ICE usually focuses its attention on the jails and with law enforcement agencies, rather than the courts. If it is focusing on the courts, then it usually looks for those with serious criminal convictions or violations. In addition, drugs are illegal, not people! We should learn never call people "illegal," who are unlawfully present and have violated civil law. Let's stop using the "I word" on ! I have attached a link with more information. The above is general information and does not create an attorney client relationship.
