The New York Court of Appeals is set to decide whether an immigrant who pleaded guilty to violating a temporary order of protection should have been guaranteed a trial by jury for the low-level charge due to the possibility of deportation, as has been allowed before.

The case follows on the heels of one handed down last year by the state’s high court, in which the judges said immigrants could be afforded a jury trial on low-level charges if they show a conviction could lead to their deportation.
