U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit

Dziedziach v. Blanche

August 31, 2026

Summary

The court denied Dziedziach’s petition for review, holding that conspiracy to retaliate against a witness under 18 U.S.C. § 1513(b) and (f) categorically constitutes a crime involving moral turpitude under the INA. It also held that applying the moral-turpitude ground for removability to his conviction was not unconstitutionally vague because the minimum conduct criminalized falls within the core of the prohibition and provides fair notice. The court declined to reconsider his remaining claims under the law of the case doctrine. No separate opinions were filed.
