New Resources on Marijuana Decriminalization in NY!

The marijuana decriminalization and expungement bill that passed earlier this year becomes effective today. Despite the changes to the law, people can still be arrested, charged, and fined for possessing a small amount of marijuana and these incidents may still lead to devastating immigration consequences. To try to dispel misconceptions and clarify the legal implications of this new law for immigrants, IDP has created a variety of resources:
* FAQ for Community Members ([link removed]) (in English and Spanish)
* FAQ for Immigration Attorneys and Advocates ([link removed])
* FAQ for Criminal Defense Attorneys ([link removed]) and Flowchart: Advising Non-U.S. Citizens about Marihuana Violations ([link removed])
* Practice Advisory: New York Marijuana Decriminalization, Vacatur, and Expungement Legislation ([link removed])
* Model 440.10(1)(k) Motion for Post-Conviction Relief ([link removed]) (created with the Center for Appellate Litigation)
