Re: Plea agreement
It depends on the charge. A six month sentence may fall into the petty offense exception. However, the type of charge may trump that exception. You should consult with an immigration attorney who can sit down a review the charging information, any substantiating statements offerred to the court to justify the plea and the the plea agreement. Contact me directly if you'd like this assistance.

Re: Plea agreement
This depends entirely on the charge. This situation needs be reviewed carefully by an immigration attorney as there might be several different immigration issues involved especially if the person has anything else on their record.
