The end began when they no longer could/would assimilate the peoples who migrated to their lands.
This is a monumental ruling from a ‘state’ court.
For decades, SCOTUS has held that there’s no right to a jury trial under the Sixth Amendment for “petty offenses.”
Today, the N.Y. Court of Appeals holds that that’s not true if the offense has deportation consequences:
Illegals are NOT IMMIGRANTS.
Overwhelm the system. It’s the Alinsky way.
Why isn’t he deported regardless of how serious the crime is? He’s an illegal alien - kick his butt out.
Ever notices, courts don’t provoke constitution crisis when Democrats have the White House and at least the House or Senate? Now that Trump is in office, or Hillary isn’t, this is happening every few months.
No one has any sense that "We the People" is exclusive to US citizen, but previous liberal SCOTUS rulings have given rights to non-citizens. And it never ends.
Would this affect other cases in New York, such as that African woman who decided to climb the Statue of Liberty last July 4th? She has been begging for a Jury Trial, where she could perform more Street Theater for the Jury.
Last I heard, the judge in that case just said ‘No!’
Time for the new Supreme Court to bitchslap the NY Court of Appeals, another cheap imitation of the 9th Circuit US Court of Appeals.
Deportation is basically a “Civil” action, not a criminal one. The assault in this case was the criminal act.
Liberal judges are total asses and continually prove it every day, to the detriment of our country.
Time for term limits for all judges.
I want the damn English language back.
This article apparently is about trespassing foreign citizens being granted the right to a jury trial. The idiocy of this ruling becomes apparent when its description is not shrouded in deliberately deceptive word-games.
This story has nothing whatsoever to do with legal immigrants and their rights.
Rome (USA) has fallen the democrats set out on a quest to destroy the USA after they lost the Civil War. They are almost there, to see the “Fruits of their labor” to destroy the USA
Judge “Garcia” - Well, who would be surprised?
Mexitrash greasing the wheels for Mexitrash.
Wonder how much Soros paid this used ass-wipe?
The judge is right. They illegal immigrants deserve a trial by a jury of their peers.. back in their country of origin. And this judge should be stationed in one of those countries, preferably Venezuela, to see to it they get a fair trial
JUST ANOTHER LAWYER JOB SECURITY PROGRAM.
So we all can have jury trials for virtually any case? Can NY afford this? Is it what the law allows or requires or is this judicial legislation?
An incredibly mealy mouthed court.
Since when do illegal immigrants have any standing in a US court of law? They are in this country illegally and should be fined for trying to jam up and undermine our justice system, and sent packing. The same goes for those abetting them.
Jury nullifications coming in a big way.
Gotta protect fraudulently documented foreigners.
Just bring these cases before a federal magistrate on the grounds that since there is the implication of deportation a federal question is involved - just the argument that the State has made. Then the federal magistrate can rule it a petty offense and award the guy.a fine. Deportation is not a criminal matter, but an administrative matter.
I would like Justice Roberts to convince me there are no Obama or Clinton judges in our judicial system. He is as ridiculous as those who say there is no INVASION of our southern border. I’d love to have that 30 second argument with him.
