Legal Question in Criminal Law in New York

immigration and crime

i married an us citizen an i left him

because he was abusive. The first

thing he did it is to call the

immigration to report a fraud in the

marriage.

Therefore the immigration sent me

by certified mail a document to

appeal in the house i used to live

with him. despite the fact my

husband was in contact with me

trough our divorce attorneys he

never gave the paper to me.

Consequently the immigration sent

to the same address a notice of

deportation in march.

my husband and his attorney showed

it to my attorney only in may so the

delay to appeal in front of the judge

expired. Basically my husband

expected me to be deported so he

does have to pay me alimony.

I am shocked that his attorney who

knew about that since the document

is dated participate to this illegal

strategy.

my question is:

Did my husband commit a crime

holding official documents and

opening my mail? then how can i sue

him.

second, How can i report this

unethical attorney?
