                (B)  Conduct-Based Immigration Consequences of Crimes.  Many of the different grounds of removal are based on status or “conduct,” rather than upon a criminal conviction.  See § 7.7, infra.  These conduct-based immigration consequences are not necessarily avoided, even if a client can avoid or eliminate a criminal conviction, since they depend upon what the client did out there in the streets, and altering a conviction does not change the historical facts of what the client actually did.
