Detenciones del ICE en tribunales de inmigración
We want to bring to your attention a serious development that could impact individuals with active immigration court cases—particularly those who have been in the United States for two years or less.
Recent Reports: ICE Presence at Court Hearings
Multiple immigration attorneys have recently reported that their clients were detained by ICE agents at or immediately following immigration court hearings. These arrests often occurred in situations where the immigration judge dismissed the case—a scenario that would typically be seen as a positive outcome.
In several instances, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) attorneys agreed to the dismissals. However, it appears that these agreements were followed by ICE enforcement actions, resulting in clients being taken into custody. This has raised serious concerns within the immigration legal community.
Why This Matters
If you or someone you know has a pending immigration court case and has been in the U.S. for less than two years, it’s critical to consult with a qualified immigration attorney before agreeing to a case dismissal. What may appear to be a favorable outcome could, in fact, lead to expedited removal.
Please be aware:
- Some judges may dismiss a case regardless of your preference.
- DHS and immigration judges, while playing different roles in court, are both part of the federal government and may be aligned in enforcement priorities.
- These recent incidents suggest a tactical shift that could undermine due process for certain immigrants.
If you are currently in immigration proceedings:
- Do no make legal decisions without consulting a trusted immigration attorney.
- Be especially cautious if your presence in the U.S. is less than two years.
- Monitor communications from your attorney and the court closely.
