Criminal Trespass - please help

[nmoh]

Hi,

 

I have been given for citation for Criminal Trespass for entering the casino after the voluntary exclusion.

I have plead not guilty and asked for a trial.

My defense attorney is saying he can ask the DA to reduce the charges to "Disorderly conduct".

I have asked him if there is any possibility to dismiss the case completely. My attorney is saying that the state will not let me walk away .

My attorney is asking me plead guilty for " Disorderly conduct ".

 

Is this a good decision considering I will have any issues at the immigration. Can you please advice ?

 

Also if i plead guilty to the summary offense , will this be considered as conviction?

Depends on your case seriousness .. was alcohol involved?  which state ?  it is best not to plead guilty but if you get good plea deal like case dismissal or similar its better.

No alcohol   was involved. It happened in Pennsylvania .  

But a plea deal will still be considered as conviction for immigration purpose... isn't it ?

What would be a good option?

1) Getting  a plea deal for 6 months/1 year , and get the case dismissed .

2 )  Pleading guilty to disorderly conduct .

 

Thanks in advance!

I had similar charges with disorderly conduct and public intoxication. I had them remove all except the fact you had self exclusion which i guess is a bigger deal. What happened to your case . I have to travel next month and i have 2 more arrest but all dismissed.

Pleading guilty means convicted. There may be new immigration laws to remove criminal convicted or arrested aliens from US soon under the new administration . Have to wait and see
