Gerbier v. Holmes

This deportation case is before us on the appeal of David Gerbier from an order of the District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, which denied his petition for a writ of habeas corpus. Gerbier is a citizen of Haiti who was a lawful permanent resident of the United States from 1984 until 1999 when he was removed to Haiti in the wake of proceedings triggered by a Delaware felony drug possession conviction that came to the attention of the Immigration and Naturalization Service ("INS").
