If this is a first offense, your brother may be able to negotiate probation or deferred adjudication.

However do not make any deals on the criminal charge before consulting an immigration attorney who is familiar with the immigration consequences of criminal law.

Depending upon your brother's status, even an deferred adjudication may result in deportation.
