Such a person would be present without authorization and removable, but would not have illegally entered and would not be subject to any criminal chargeas a result of the visa overstay. * Moreover, the offense of illegal entry occursat the time of entry and is not a continuing offense for which a person present without authorization could be arrested absent a warrant, unless that offense was committed in the presenceof the arresting officer. (United States v. Cores (1958) 356 U.S. 405, 408 fn. 6; Cal. Pen. Code § 836(a).) B. An Individual’s Present Lack of a Valid Immigration Status Does Not Mean He Will Be Removed.
