The Seventh Circuit reversed the district court’s denial of the petitioner’s motion to withdraw his guilty plea, holding that the petitioner—who was recently removed to Italy following a federal drug conviction—could choose to withdraw his guilty plea and instead seek a trial by jury, because his counsel had failed to warn him that a plea of guilty would carry the threat of deportation.

The Ninth Circuit reversed the defendant’s conviction for illegal reentry, holding that by asking the defendant to comment on the credibility of a border patrol agent—a key witness against him—then referring to evidence not before the jury to bolster the agent’s testimony, the government deprived the defendant of the fair trial guaranteed by the Due Process Clause.

Supreme Court Holds U.S. Citizen Spouse Was Not Deprived of Due Process
In a 5-4 decision, the Supreme Court vacated the Ninth Circuit’s decision in Kerry v. Dinand remanded.
