ABA Immigration and Crime Video Conference

Teleconference and Live Audio Webcast — The Rings of Immigration Hell:  The Collateral Consequences to Aliens of Criminal Convictions  Date: Wednesday, November 30, 2005

This seminar presents the immigration consequences for non-citizen defendants of criminal convictions. Compared to losing “all that makes life worth living” a criminal conviction may not be an alien’s most important consideration. This seminar is for lawyers and judges who interact with non-citizen clients including criminal defense attorneys, prosecutors, and immigration lawyers. Program Faculty include Robert J. McWhirter, Assistant Federal Public Defender, District of Arizona and author of The Criminal Lawyer’s Guide to Immigration Law: Questions and Answers, 2nd Ed. (ABA Press 2005) and Molly Roth, Assistant Federal Public Defender, Western District of Texas. For details, see http://www.abanet.org/cle/programs/t05rih1.html
