vishalamo Posted July 11, 2015 Report Share Posted July 11, 2015 I'm finger printed for shoplifting and I am from India. I have a court date yesterday but moved to next friday As this is my 1st offense ever and this is a misdemeanor I heard that there is a chance for pre-trail diversion here in Fulton county Georgia(fulton county is my court). But one of my friend says that Pre trail diversion is not good for USCIS (as I have GC and H1 stamping)and Port of Entry. So, she says its better to get it downgraded to some other which is not CIMT. I also heard that there is pretrail bargain. So in terms of Immigration if it is reduced to some other charge I have 2 questions. 1. When reduced it means I plea guilty to reduced one. So is there a chance to expunge it after reducing? 2. Will the shoplifting still show after reducing. Link to comment
century Posted July 15, 2015 Report Share Posted July 15, 2015 If you want to downgrade to Non CIMT charge you will have to plead guilty for CIMT charge which will get you convicted. Get your case dropped completely Link to comment

Raj-AMC Posted April 6, 2018 Report Share Posted April 6, 2018 @vishalamo : Hi, Am in the same boat. my case was dismissed and i was in pre-trial diversion program and probation period for one year and done the same. Went for visa stamping and got the 221g blue slip. Have you done your stamping after your case ? Can you please message me to my inbox. Link to comment

karan123456 Posted June 11, 2018 Report Share Posted June 11, 2018 I see you had stamping with your background. I had a similar background. I was arrested in 2014 Oct charged with Class B misdemeanor. After that I hired attorney and PTD happened and case was dismissed and my records were expunged. Now I wanted to go for stamping. How did you file the application and what are all details you provided in application and what happened during the interview. Can you please provide me the details, any help will be appreciated and helps me to prepare for it. Thanks in advance, Karan. Link to comment
