The Categorical Approach

Topics:
  • Other Immigration

The categorical approach is the single most important tool for defending a noncitizen who has been convicted of a crime. This is especially true now that the Supreme Court has reaffirmed the strict, and beneficial interpretation of this approach in U.S. v. Mathis (2016), so that a lot of past precedent is overruled to the benefit of immigrants. In this interactive webinar experts will take participants step-by-step through this approach, from the basics to cutting edge defense strategies.
