More details to this question:
Due to this poor economy I lost everything including my business. Because of that I owe $52,000 to state sales tax and they made a criminal case against me and offered me with probation and restitution paid with withheld judgment. How this will affect my green card and am I also eligible for citizenship>

It does not sound like the basis to revoke permanent residency or deny citizenship but I would need to see the actual conviction documents. Why did you plead guilty in a criminal matter if the economy caused the problem? Seems like it should have been civil only.

You may be subject to a deportation hearing because this a felony and a crime of moral turpitude.
