Supreme Court narrows drunk driving crimes for deportation fate
The Supreme Court, in a unanimous ruling by Chief Justice Rehnquist, held that a non citizen convicted of causing injuries while driving drunk does not fit the violent crimes category for removal laws. The decision favors immigrant rights, overturning the 11th Circuit and allowing possible readmission for Josue Leocal, Haitian immigrant with U.S. citizen family.
