Possible Problems with Public Intoxication

Hello, 

Someone very important to me with F-1 visa was arrested with public intoxication in January 2016. He is coming back to the US later this month after he got a new visa which took longer because of the indecent. We have two questions and hope to hear what you think. 

1- When my friend arrives in the US, is he likely going to have more questioning and checking at the airport because of it? 

2- He thinks he has good reasons to get the case dismissed. He pleaded guilty because he was leaving the US soon after the incident. Is it possible to reopen the case if he get a lawyer?

Thank you

He thought that if the case does not get dismissed while he is not in the US, he might have issues with getting the visa renewed.  

We have two more questions and we hope to get answers for them. 

1- If he wants to apply for opt/cpt or even green card in the future, will this indecent cause issues or prevent him from doing so? 

2- When my friend arrives in the US later this month, is he likely going to have more questioning and checking at the airport because of it?

 

Thank you and we appreciate it.
