Deportation & Immigration Court
General Deportation & Immigration Court InformationDeportation cases generally begin when the US
Government issues a Notice to Appear charging the alien as deportable
and alleging facts that support the charge. The Notice to Appear is
similar to a charging document in the criminal context. The Notice to
Appear contains allegations, which, if proven true, may result in the
alien being found deportable. The alien can dispute the allegations and
deportation charge in the Notice to Appear. If the alien disputes the
allegations and charge, the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement
Agency must prove the allegations and charge.
If the Immigration Judge finds that the allegations and charge are true, the alien is found deportable; however, there may still be forms of relief available to the alien such as cancellation of removal, 212(c) relief, deportation defense, TPS and asylum. If an alien is detained pending the removal proceedings, it is often possible to secure the release of the alien on bond. This allows the alien to remain outside of prison awaiting the deportation proceedings. Strategically, release on bond is important, because the alien can help with the preparation of the deportation defense case much easier. Additionally, some immigration courts are more immigrant-friendly than others. For example, the immigration court in Lancaster, California, which handles deportation cases for those detained, tends to be tougher for deportation defense when compared to downtown Los Angeles. If an alien lose the deportation case, there are still options available. The alien can appeal the decision to the Board of Immigration Appeals. Additionally, the alien can pursue a motion to reopen or motion to reconsider in some circumstances. . "Jay Nunez esq has superior knowledge on immigration matters.
