Keller Law Offices Wins Plea Withdrawal Motion, Leading to Immediate Relase from Custody

Sunday, May 9th, 2010

Recently, Keller Law Offices won one of the first victories in the state of Minnesota under a new U.S. Supreme Court decision dealing with the affect of criminal cases on immigrants in the U.S. See http://tinyurl.com/yblfy8e.  In this Wright County felony theft case, attorney Max A. Keller of Keller Law Offices was able to successfully motion the trial Court to withdraw his client’s guilty plea.  She had previously been represented by another attorney who did not sufficiently inform her of the immigration consequences of her guilty plea.  As a result, she was immediately tossed into INS or ICE immigration detention custody when she finished serving her jail term at the Wright County Jail.  As a result of Mr. Keller’s efforts, her guilty plea was withdrawn and stands not-guilty of the offense.  As a result, within days of being hired, we got our client released from immigration detention.  Keller Law Offices saved its felony theft client from almost certain immediate deportation, and she was re-united with her husband.  The client and her husband were very happy in this Wright County felony theft matter with severe potential immigration consequences.
