Michigan Supreme Court

People of Michigan v. Jose Daniel Alonso

July 31, 2020

Summary

The Michigan Supreme Court remanded the case to the Court of Appeals for consideration as on leave granted, without deciding whether counsel was ineffective in advising defendant about immigration consequences. The remand permits further consideration of whether an assault-with-intent-to-commit-great-bodily-harm conviction was clearly a crime of violence and whether defendant can establish deficient performance and prejudice.
