The Supreme Court sided Wednesday with U.S. immigration authorities who want to deport a man convicted in a car theft case. In a near-unanimous decision, the Court said immigration law provides for removing someone convicted of aiding and abetting a theft offense when the term of imprisonment is at least one year. The justices were considering whether conviction on a state charge of aiding and abetting a car theft rose to the level envisioned by Congress when the Immigration and Nationality Act was passed.
