DEFINITION OF TERMS USC, LPR, Undocumented. In these materials, a United States citizen is referred to as a USC, a lawful permanent resident ( green card holder) is referred to as an LPR, and a person with no current lawful Immigration status is referred to as an undocumented person. For more information on these and other forms of Immigration status, see Note: Overview and Note: Relief Toolkit. Aggravated Felony (AF). This conviction generally brings the worst Immigration consequences. The AF definition at 8 USC 1101(a)(43) includes twenty-one provisions that describe hundreds of offenses, including some misdemeanors.
Example: California Vehicle Code § 10851 prohibits taking a vehicle with intent to deprive the owner “permanently or temporarily.” Intent to deprive permanently is a crime involving moral turpitude (CIMT), but temporary intent is not. Is § 10851 divisible as a CIMT? The Ninth Circuit found that it is not.
