    A very important case is coming up in the U.S. Supreme Court for noncitizens in criminal cases, or who have criminal convictions, and for their lawyers. Chaidez v. United States concerns whether the 2010 decision in Padilla v. Kentucky is retroactive. Courts around the country have divided on that issue. Professor Cesar Cuauhtemoc Garcia Hernandez, author of the crImmigration.com blog, here explains what to look out for and why.

     

    Cesar Cuauhtemoc Garcia Hernandez is an assistant professor at Capital University Law School, writes the crImmigration.com blog about the convergence of criminal law and immigration law, and is of counsel at Garcia & Garcia Attorneys at Law, P.L.L.C. He thanks Margaret B. Kwoka, an assistant professor at the John Marshall Law School (Chicago), for providing helpful feedback on drafts of this article, and Tamikka F. Pate for her research assistance.
