U.S. District Court for the NMI visiting Judge David O. Carter required Olivos to provide a copy of his plane ticket to the Federal Probation Office.
Carter also required Olivos to pay a $100 fine.
Olivos, who was represented by court-appointed defense attorney Colin Thompson, pleaded guilty to one count of immigration document fraud.
Olivos asked for the court’s forgiveness. He told the court of his intention to return to the Philippines because his father is suffering from diabetes and has a heart problem.
Carter took into consideration Olivos’ admission, and wished the defendant luck.
After Carter rendered his judgment, Assistant U.S. Attorney Kirk Schuler, the prosecutor, requested the court to allow Olivos’ self-deportation.
Carter agreed with Schuler’s position that Olivos got his “ultimate” penalty of deportation.
Carter directed Olivos to immediately report to an authorized immigration officer for removal proceedings.
The court said Olivos has to secure authorization from the secretary of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security if he wants to go to the U.S. in the future.
If he remains here, Olivos has to immediately report to the Federal Probation Office to start his probation, and has to be under a 30-day home detention program, among other conditions, the court said.
The prosecution said Olivos entered into a fraudulent marriage with a U.S. citizen on Sept. 14, 2001.
Olivo’s accomplice, Maria Calipay Maderal Camacho, paid the U.S. citizen to marry Olivos, the prosecution said.
Olivos received his “green card” on Jan. 4, 2007.
Maria Calipay Maderal Camacho has already admitted her involvement in the marriage fraud conspiracy.
Carter scheduled Camacho’s sentencing for Nov. 9.
Olivos and Camacho were separately arrested by federal agents last January. Camacho is out on bail.
