All foreign nationals who are convicted of a criminal felony are subject to deportation after they serve the imposed sentencing. This applies even if the person has obtained permanent resident status or has been a naturalized citizen for less than two years. If the person has been a US citizen longer than two years the Attorney General can file a lawsuit in federal court to have the person denaturalized and deported.
