Court Holds that Imposition of Court Costs Does Not Qualify as “Conviction”

The Fourth Circuit granted the petition for review, finding that an assessment of $100 in costs, assessed attendant to prayer for judgment continued under North Carolina law, is not a “penalty” under INA §101(a)(48)(A)(ii) and is therefore not a “conviction” under the INA.
