The Trump administration launched an operation to end the Immigration Court cases for some immigrants, in order to arrest them and put them in a process of rapid pathways instead.
Lawyers and preachers have reported this week about the arrests of immigrants outside the immigration courts throughout the United States, saying that a team of immigration and customs employees had detained their members in front of immigration judges who were just terminated at the request of the government.
CBS News officials said that ICE is conducting a process of speeding the deportation of migrants with hearings in the court scheduled for the near future. It is the last step that the Trump administration has taken to intensify the arrest of immigration significantly throughout the country and fulfill what the president promised will be the largest deportation campaign in American history.
The operation includes the ice prosecutor who ask the immigration judges to end the court cases for some immigrants, so that the agency’s agents can instead arrest these individuals and put them in more Quick deportation process Officials said that known as “fast removal.”
Contrary to the procedures of the Immigration Court, which may take years to be completed due to a Huge accumulation Of the 4 million pending cases, the expedited removal of officials allows the deportation of migrants more quickly, if their condition meets certain conditions.
Immigrants who lack the appropriate documents and cannot prove that they were in the United States for more than two years qualified to deport them under fast removal, without a court hearing.
Historically, officials were only allowed to use rapid removal of unauthorized immigrants who are 100 miles from the international border who were in the United States for less than two weeks. But the Trump administration greatly expanded its scope after a period of taking office.
Fast removal can also be applied to unauthorized immigrants who entered the United States with the permission of the government at legal entry points, and there is no entry for two years for these cases. This would offer nearly a million immigrants who entered the United States under the Biden Administration program known as CBP in the risk of targeting through the new ice process.
While those who were placed in fast removal can be deported without a hearing in the Immigration Court, they are entitled to conduct an interview with the asylum officer if they say they are afraid that they will be persecuted in their homeland. If they pass these offers, they get a chance to lot for their case in the Immigration Court.
In a statement, a spokeswoman for the Ministry of Internal Security, Tricia McLulin, made the Biden administration to issue many migrants to appear before the Immigration Court, instead of trying to deport them quickly through the miracle removal.
“Ice is now following the law and putting these illegal foreigners in expedited removal, as they should have always been,” said McLeulin.
Lendro Ferrer, the Venix immigration lawyer, Arizona, said his agents, two Cuban immigrants, were invaded in the ice process when they attended the immigration court session on Tuesday.
“There was a feeling of relief when the government’s general prosecutors moved to reject the removal measures,” Ferrier said. “This has always been, historically, a very required result, or we are trying to win a case based on the advantages of the request or try to reject the removal procedures.”
But for his shock and dismay, Ferrier said that the ice agents arrested his clients as soon as they left the courtroom.
“They did not make the identity, they had no arrest warrant, and they did not make any attempt to determine whether or not they had committed a crime.” “They just entered and took them.”
Ferer said that his Cuban agents entered the United States in 2022, after they appeared until a legal entry point along the borders of the United States of Mexican, hoping to seek asylum.
Even amid ICE’s efforts to arrest some immigrants after they appeared to the court, immigration lawyers said they still advise their customers strongly against losing hearings, because failure to do so may be the reasons for the judges to issue a deportation order.
Ice arrests were reported in immigration fields throughout the country in many cities that include large groups of immigrants, including Los Angeles, Saytel, Chicago, Dallas, Las Vegas and Miami.
“I started receiving calls from family members from those who are arrested asking for help,” said Antonio Ramos, a Miami -based migration lawyer, adding that the phone calls started on Monday, “I started receiving calls from family members from those who are arrested asking for help,” adding that phone calls started on Monday.
Ramos said he is trying to make preparations for his customers who have hearings in the next court.
“They will come to my office first, we will take them to court and we will not leave them alone for one second in the building,” he said.
Ramos added: “People need to consult with a lawyer before going to court, a person who can take a look at the case and evaluate options, not the notary,” Ramos added.
