Immigration and Naturalization Service v. St. Cyr
''Immigration and Naturalization Service v. St. Cyr'', 533 U.S. 289 (2001) is a United States Supreme Court case involving habeas corpus relief for deportable aliens.
== Facts ==
Enrico St. Cyr pleaded guilty to a controlled substance violation in Connecticut. Under U.S. Immigration Law, St. Cyr, a lawful permanent resident for ten years and a citizen of Haiti, became deportable by being convicted of the controlled substance violation. Before the Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act of 1996 (AEDPA) and the Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996 (IIRIRA), § 212(c) of the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952 was interpreted to give the Attorney General broad discretion to waive deportation of resident aliens. The AEDPA and IIRIRA, however, limited the class of aliens who can apply for relief. Attorney General John Ashcroft argued that the new federal laws stripped him of the authority to grant St. Cyr a waiver. St. Cyr, who had pleaded guilty ''before'' the new federal laws were enacted but had deportation proceedings brought against him ''after'' the new federal laws were enacted, conceded deportability but argued that he was entitled to a writ of habeas corpus. The District Court accepted St. Cyr's habeas corpus application and agreed that the new restrictions do not apply to removal proceedings brought against an alien who pleaded guilty to a deportable crime before their enactment.
