Amber's client is a lawful permanent resident and was serving a three-year term of probation in Nevada for "statutory sexual seduction." But, the judge was willing to reduce the plea to "conspiracy to ... commit a crime" once he was done with probation. During probation, ICE arrested him because of his plea of "statutory sexual seduction," which is a deportable offense in Nevada. Amber filed a motion requesting that her client be released from probation early. Over State objection, the court granted her client early termination of probation and permitted him to change his "statutory sexual seduction" plea to the lesser crime of "conspiracy to commit a crime." Then, Amber appeared with her client in Immigration Court and explained that he was no longer deportable because he was never convicted of "statutory sexual seduction" but rather "conspiracy to commit a crime."
