Excellent article. I also noticed that the fired Immigration Judges are predominantly women. The newly hired immigration judges and temporary immigration judges are predominantly men.

Look to San Francisco. There’s a reason Trump called off the invasion. Oops, I mean “surge”.

Sorry for the wonky numbering. I’m too verbose. If he can be deported and if he’s eligible for relief then it’s up to the immigration judge to grant it in an exercise of discretion. The immigration judge can be reversed by the Board of Immigration Appeals. Then there is no appeal. 3/3

If he does have a ‘firearms conviction” he may be eligible for relief from removal. It depends on the date of the commission of the offense or, alternatively, whether he has relatives who can file an immigrant visa for him. 2/3

Immigration lawyer here. If he received a citation for a firearms offense that can be a removable offense. It depends on the firearms definition in that jurisdiction and whether the state or municipal definition of a citation = the federal definition of a conviction. 1/2

What’s really interesting is that DHS has the discretion to waive the fee for certain employers and industries.

I’d remove it. I’d also remove getting the person’s A number. All you need is their first name and a phone number to call their family

If the person admits to the witness that they are not a U.S. citizen by telling the witness where they were born that protection is gone. It makes noncitizens less safe. /2
