Securing Your Client's Release from Detention: The Fundamentals

Topics:
  • Detention
  • Enforcement

Increased enforcement under the Trump administration has led to the arrests and detention of tens of thousands of noncitizens. This panel will discuss strategies to advocate for clients' release from detention, including parole requests, bond hearings before the immigration court (including a discussion of recent federal litigation updates impacting bond eligibility), and habeas petitions. We will also discuss who is subject to mandatory detention and what steps a practitioner can take to challenge a mandatory detention determination. Finally, we will cover stays of removal before the administrative agencies and the federal courts.
